I want everyone to experience the fun and beautiful sunset we had. We were so lucky that our captain really let us experience sailing in the harbor. Food was out of this world, and on our cruise the chef's came along so I was able to compliment them myself. Great excursion to do.

This tour is probably best for folks who are not overly familiar with sailing vessels and are looking for something a bit different. Our guides were Jess and Quinton, who managed the sailing of the boat while providing bar services, being our waiters and providing running commentary on the sights around the harbour and general conversation on any other topic that came up. There were 10 of us on board, so these guys were quite busy at times! We had chosen a lamb pot pie as our main course for dinner, which was very tasty. These are preselected and preprepared meals brought on board just prior to the start of the cruise though, so dont expect a fancy sit down dinner! Our group also chose to have dinner outside on deck at the back of the sailboat rather than sit inside the hull. This provided a much more scenic and relaxed atmosphere. One complementary drink was provide from a limited selection of wines and beers. For our particular cruise, they had not brought along a cash box, so we enjoyed a number of refills on our drinks at no charge! Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed this outing, and recommend it highly!

It is on a sailboat. The food was marvelous. The main courses including the salmon and the lamb were outstanding! My husband, an avid sailor was allowed to steer the boat and he was in heaven. The sailing portion was about 15 miles and one hour and we were able to see the lights come on in the city

Dinner was good and the views were nice. However, it was a little awkward being the only single person on the cruise.

Boat captain was excellent. After motoring around the harbor, seeing the sights and having our dinner, he took the boat to a location where we could have a long sail back to the dock after dinner. We enjoyed the setting sun and city views as we sailed along for what seemed like an hour. Fantastic experience.

A VERY pleasant, relaxing ride on a yacht around Auckland Harbor. Highlight of the sail was having a turn at the wheel AND then watching my 84 year old mother having a go at it as well reliving experiences from the 1930's. Liked the option of having to a table below deck to eat dinner dinner could use an upgrade, but I was there for the view mostly. Captain/crew were friendly, helpful, personable had no doubt we were in good hands. Would recommend this excursion. Serious suggestion would be to give more clear directions to the wharf - it is a busy area of town and not especially easy to find for people who are totally unfamiliar with Auckland maybe include a map with your paperwork.

Happy and personable young crew made this 3 hour dinner cruise an memorable Auckland experience. Given the limitations of the small galley kitchen, the 3 courses offered were to be commended. Returning after dinner, under sail, the lights of the City in the background, was a wonderful way to finish.

What a nice way to wind your day down. Sailing on the water, while being served dinner watching the sun set. Only wish we could have stayed out on the water longer. Highly recommend.
