Private 90 minute Sydney Harbour Twilight Champagne Cruise

About this activity

The golden hour is settling over Sydney as you board at Campbells Cove, a short stroll from Circular Quay. From the historic Rocks you head out onto the water for 90 minutes of golden light, live commentary and Premium Australian champagne. Just your group. No other passengers.

Your route covers nine of the harbour's most storied locations: Sydney Harbour Bridge, Sydney Opera House, Kirribilli House, Fort Denison, Shark Island, Clark Island, Sydney Harbour National Park and Garden Island Naval Base. Your local skipper shares the history of each one as it comes into view, or you can simply sit back and take in the views with your private group.

Premium Australian champagne is poured the moment you depart. Bluetooth music plays throughout, and bottled water is provided. The VIP Sports Cruiser has a downstairs cabin, toilet facilities and open deck space.

Ninety minutes on Sydney Harbour, catching the last light of the day and watching the city lights come alive.
