About this tour
Spend Christmas Day afloat on Sydney Harbour with a three-hour dinner cruise featuring a buffet spread of seafood, roasted meats, salads and sweets. Watch the city skyline drift past while festive music plays and you crack bon-bons with fellow diners. The boat's bar stocks drinks for purchase, and hot beverages wrap up the meal. Book ahead—these fill quickly over the holiday period.
Highlights
- Seafood and roast buffet served aboard a working harbour vessel
- Sydney Harbour views without leaving your table

- Live holiday music throughout the three-hour sail
- Prams and infant seats catered for; suitable for all fitness levels
What to expect
You'll board the vessel and settle into your seat as the boat pushes off into the harbour. The buffet opens soon after departure, with hot and cold dishes laid out for you to serve yourself. Most diners graze across the three hours, returning to the buffet between courses whilst the city glides past outside. The atmosphere is relaxed rather than formal. Festive tunes play in the background, and tables crack crackers together. The bar staff are on hand if you'd like to order wine or spirits—these aren't included, so budget accordingly.
Good to know
Book well in advance; December slots sell out. Alcoholic drinks are available but cost extra. Public transport serves the departure point, so you needn't arrange hotel transfers. Children must stay with an adult throughout.
