Such a fun night out .

Sarah_B, June 2022

I chose this company because the boat is cool, only takes a small group and they had music playing softly, cold drinks and sandwiches. Will go again next year!

Heesung_K, June 2022

Very kind staff members, a little bit small boat but fast enough to enjoy the beautiful views, basic beverages and breads with some hams and cheeses. It was overall a very good tour for our family with kids.

Vivid from the Water!

Keith_H, June 2022

Great trip on the Sydney harbor. Amazingly steady considering the wind. And warm enough, even in the cold snap, to sit out in the front. Great antipasto tray. Throughly enjoyed this experience.

Thank you for your review and we are glad to hear that you enjoyed viewing the lights from the water. Hope to have you onboard for vivid again in the future.

Small boat comfort

BJDBendigo_Australia, June 2019

After having battled the overcrowding on larger boats cruising around Vivid in previous years, it was refreshing to be on a small boat with personal contact with the very friendly and efficient crew. It was extremely good value for money and I would be definitely recommending it to others.

Response from Host, June 2019

Thanks for sharing your Vivid Sydney experience. Small boats are a great option to see the lights from the water and we are definitely glad to hear that you enjoyed your time cruising with our team. Glad you enjoyed the intimate cruise and personal service and hope to see you back again next year or for an alternate occasion.

Très belle balade pour...

FRANCK_P, June 2022

Très belle balade pour admirer les lumières du show Vivid. Par contre en raison du froid un bon café ou thé chaud aurait été très apprécié.

Response from Host, June 2022

Thank you for your review and we are glad to hear that you enjoyed viewing the lights from the water. While your suggestion is great, unfortunately, this vessel does not have heating facilities on board to be able to offer this service. We are glad that you enjoyed the Vivid harbour cruise.
