      Fantastic 3 hour lunch cruise
      The cruise left promptly and each group had their own table. The food portions were generous and the staff friendly. Thanks to Rebecca and Michael for enjoyable music over 3 hours. Beautiful views of Sydney. The boat is older than some others on the harbour but comfortable. We chose this one because of the menu- great seafood options but also many non- seafood options. A highlight of our stay in Sydney.

      Really fun night.
      I have booked the Latino dinner cruise 3x and it never dissapoints. My friends actually have started buying tickets for my birthday each year. The food is always simple and delicious, the staff are always so happy and helpful. The only con is some of the other passengers that don't listen to instructions, or push in line, but that isn't the staffs fault. I recommend buying the drinks package so you dont have to worry about paying things once on board.

      New Year’s Eve
      Had a fantastic New Year’s Eve cruise on this boat. Watched the fire works, which were amazing. Food was fantastic and plentiful. Didn’t have to wait long for service at the bar.

      We recently enjoyed a delightful lunch cruise. The staff truly went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic experience. The food and entertainment were both excellent. We’re definitely looking forward to booking another cruise soon!

      New Year 2025 Sydney Harbour Cruise with Vagabond Spirit
      New Year 2025 harbour cruise with my fiance. We live in Cairns and came to spend NY to Sydney. Harbour cruise was our one of the best experiences so far. Friendly crew, good buffet food, drinks, atmosphere relaxed. Great view to fireworks. I highly recommend.

      Major Disappointment not a Latina Fiesta
      What a terrible night, took my for her 65th Birthday on what we saw advertised as a Latina show. Food was great but we had to wait nearly 3hrs. from when we boarded for the "show". 10 minutes of dancing with 10 minutes of bongo drums & martial arts. It was a party boat with young peoples party music for 3 1/2 hrs. Major Disappointment & major waste of money due to "FALSE ADVERTISING". This was a party boat harbour trip NOT A 4 hour LATINA FIESTA.

      Fantastic day out! Great value!
      Highly recommend this fabulous day out on Sydney Harbour. The boat was fabulous, the food fantastic, live music was wonderful & crew friendly. And of course Sydney Harbour brought the goods for us with perfect weather too. Thank you so much! We loved it!

      Not a great day
      We attended the Christmas Day Lunch with Vagabond Cruises. The cruise was very disorganised we had to wait a long time in the sun before boarding. They put us on the wrong table and had to move later on after they ran around trying to work out their seating arrangement. There was absolutely no air conditioning upstairs and it was a very hot day with the sun beaming in. They just set up a fan on either end of the upstairs section but this was not enough for a huge group of people that were all seated very close to one another. We could not feel any cool air at all. The food was average and it took a very long time before people could begin to eat. Also we had to wait even longer after the food came out before we were called to eat as they asked each table to get up individually. This took forever. We were absolutely starving before we could eat. Considering everyone paid a lot per head I do not think it was good value. The person on the microphone made some dad jokes but no one was laughing.

      Christmas day on the Harbour
      We did the Christmas day cruise; It was a hot day, we sat down at our table after lining up in the sun, the boat was hot and the windows were hard to open, there was no water on table when we arrived we had to try and find someone to ask for water, all tables had Bon, bons, prawns, oysters & smoke salmon which was lovely but only enough for 3 people and there were 6 of us. Then they didn't have proof we had purchased a bar package, so we had to try and find the receipt before they gave us drinks, $35 for 3-hour cruise, properly not worth it if you are a light drinker. It wasn't the best start to a relaxing cruise, I felt there set up could have been better with all windows open, water on all tables and enough food & Bon Bons for everyone. After everything was sort and the boat was moving it was a lot cooler, we started to enjoy our cruise. The food was average, the pulled beef was dry and tough. The cruise around the harbour was lovely and the weather was beautiful. The staff did their best but some of them couldn't understand our requests. All in all, not a bad day on the harbour, just could have been more prepared at the being.

      Boxing Day Cruise
      Fantastic time on this cruise - we had perfect weather. Staff were all very friendly, food was really good. We got the drinks package and it was well worth it. Was brilliant seeing the start of the Sydney to Hobart yacht race. Never get sick of seeing the sights of Sydney harbour.

      Terrible
      I had an absolutely terrible experience with this company’s Christmas Eve dinner cruise. A friend of mine booked three tickets, including one for me, and we arrived at the gate at 6:30 PM to join the queue. Boarding was scheduled for 6:45 PM. Our tickets were scanned, IDs checked, and we were given bracelets—just like everyone else in the queue. Since there was no announcement or signage to indicate otherwise, we assumed the crowd was for the same event and that there would be multiple boats for the party. Boarding began at 6:45 PM, and we were still stuck in the middle of the queue with others wearing the same bracelets as us. To our shock, the boat left without us. When we asked the staff for assistance, they rudely informed us that there were two separate boats and that the one including dinner had already departed. How were we supposed to know this? There was no way to tell the queues apart, no clear communication, and no announcements made. The organization was an absolute mess, and the staff were rude and completely unhelpful. I ended up losing all my money for a service I never received. I would never book with this company again and risk such an awful experience. I highly recommend avoiding this company at all costs if you value your money and your time. I will be sharing this review widely to warn others.

      Glad that we chose Vagabond.
      The more experienced staff were very friendly and professional. As non-drinkers we appreciated that the lunch package didn't include alcohol so we weren't paying for other people's drinking. The buffet service was fair and we could return for more. The galley didn't run out of oysters and prawns. The vessel departed quite late but it didn't really matter because Sydney put on a perfect day.

      Don't waste your money!
      Don't waste your money for this company cruises, staff are not well trained rude and no sense about the manner. The buffet is not real buffet you can only grab food once, so not much you can eat! Plus its very crowded and tables are so small! In general its such a rush and not decent experience for Christmas Eve! $110 for one person thinking about the service dont recommend it at all!

    The food was nice but a little like bistro nosh.
    The entertainment was fantastic from the dancer group 👍👍
    My issue is that the guests were 90% Cook Islanders....wonderful people but mine and one other group felt intimidated by the unbalanced numbers. The MC on the night was far too policing with guests, he actually threatened one of my associates as we were disembarking the cruise which left a damper on the whole experience.....I wouldn't recommend this cruise due to the imbalance of the client base and the bouncer like approach of the boats MC.

    Hi Darrel, Thank you for review. We're happy to hear you enjoyed your meal. I wanted to make the point that we do not "cater to" or target any specific demographic. Ethnic background, age, gender or any other group-identifying factor does not weigh in at any point with regards to how we manage our bookings, and as such, we do not discriminate nor control the mix of people aboard our cruises on any particular night. Multiple reports from crew on the night (later confirmed by CCTV footage) show 2 guests from your group touching guests and staff inappropriately throughout the night. This continued despite them being told to stop on multiple occasions by our staff. One of these individuals inappropriately touched the Cruise Director (who was the MC on the night) resulting in the reported altercation. We are sorry to hear you wouldn't recommend our service. That being said, we also feel that your review is a somewhat unfair and disingenuous assessment of the service we offer for the reasons stated above. Please note that any unsolicited touching or otherwise inappropriate behaviour towards our crew or any of our guests will not be tolerated under any circumstances. If you wish to discuss this further, please do not hesitate to contact our office on 02 9660 0388. Thank you again

    Our anniversary/Birthday celebration was absoultely awesome thanks to the Crew. The food was amazing ; the desert mouth watering and the Latino show plenty of fun. Special mention to the Cruise Director Gabriela who gave personalised attention to the clients. She was so professional and kept checking on the clients throughout the 4 hour cruise. We are definitely going back soon :)

    Well My parents were here for the first time in Sydney. I wanted them to have great experience and keeping that in mind I had gifted them 4 hour Latino Dinner Cruise tickets(operated by vegabond). My parents are very introvert and I was not sure whether they would enjoy or not. But everyone in the crew made sure that they are comfortable. They ensured that my parents are enjoying. My parents had all the praise for food. Dances like Brazilian ect and DJ was were brilliant. There was this Nigerian girl in their crew about whom they could not stop praising.
    Thank you guys for making that trip memorable for my parents

    We went aboard the Vagabond Star on Australia Day 2020.

    The staff were amazing and the food was lovely. We chose to select the full drink package which was worth every cent.

    The dinner cruise was booked out, however I did not feel that it was overcrowded. It was just enough people to have an enjoyable night. The tables were clean with table cloths with nice cutlery. The food consisted of beef, chicken wings (which were to die for) and amazing salads and pasta.

    The Latino show was fantastic and was enjoyed by all. The staff on the boat were just so lovely and made the cruise just that more special.

    The only thing I would say is that fans and/or air conditioning would be nice as it was very hot downstairs. On deck it was fun and nice and cool whilst enjoying the beautiful breeze at night. You could dance upstairs, drink, and if you're a smoker, this was also catered for.

    All in all, we had a wonderful time and I would highly recommend this cruise. Very reasonable rates to cruise and well worth it. It is fun for all. It's a must to do.

    My wife and I had an amazing experience on Valentine's Day. We had a lot of fun, when I say a lot I really mean it! Gabriela, the cruise manager, treated us like a king and a queen and she really nailed it when it comes to making the event feel nothing but perfect! It was the best Valentine's Day my wife and I have ever had. We are definitely going there again!

    Disappointed that our seating was upstairs, along with a few others, and we all felt "excluded" from what was happening and going on downstairs where the action was. Good entertainment and food and would recommend this dinner & cruise on the proviso the booking was for down stairs. We booked two months out and in hindsight we would have made this a stipulation at the time of booking.

    We had a wonderful night, cruising one of the most amazing harbour's in the world, food was beautiful, entertainment was full energy and staff were so helpful, one suggestion pre booking wine for your table to ease congestion at the bar, but apart from that, we had an amazing night with friends, really special.
