★★★★★ ★★★★★ Recommended Overnight yacht experience was extraordinary Rhianna 7 February 2026 Everything about this experience was top class. The yacht was stunning, the cruise around the harbour lovely, the overnight stay was phenomenal and the food was fresh, excellent quality and plentiful. My husband and I had a truly wonderous celebration and I would highly recommend this adventure if you want a top class, romantic, experience where everything is arranged for you and no effort is too much. It's worth every single penny of the cost and I have no doubt I will do it again when I want to celebrate something special. Customer Experience Hi Rhianna, We’re delighted to hear your celebration was such a memorable one. It means a great deal to hear it felt truly romantic and effortless and we hope you and your Husband can enjoy another RedBalloon experience soon. 8 February 2026
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Recommended Great experience, very romantic Stephen 8 January 2024 We loved this, the boat was very comfortable, the captain was experienced and looked after us. Id recommend taking a couple of creature comforts along, like your favorite drinks and snacks, we also took a bluetooth speaker and some bug spay so we could enjoy lounging on deck with our wine a cheese and watch the sunset.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Recommended Incredible sail across Sydney Harb & amazing food! Ashley 13 November 2023 The wind was quite high and we had an incredible time sailing all across Sydney Harbour upwind! Our skipper James was amazing - chill and fun!! We then had a very relaxing downwind sail and dropped anchor at a stunning and sheltered spot. The Roast Lamb and Mashed Potato was unreal - definitely pick that option. Super moist with buttery potatoes! Cabins were super clean - you can pay a little more and they make up the other cabins with fresh linen in case you want to invite friends or family!
★★★★★ ★★★★★ What an amazing experience Angela 15 March 2022 I can not recommend this experience enough. Everything from the time of booking right through to being sailed back to shore at the end of it was completely hassle free. Whether you've sailed before or for the first time, you can not help but thoroughly enjoy yourself. The staff at Sydney by Sail are so friendly and down to earth. The food was delicious and more than enough for 2 people. The sailing around the harbour was fantastic and the boat was amazing. Do yourself a favour and book this experience - you won't regret it!
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Overall a good experience. Aaron 17 January 2022 It was a good experience for my wife and me. The weather wasn't as favourable as hoped; however, the skipper found a perfect spot out of the elements to make our stay memorable. I do feel it was overpriced, and the food was a letdown. As a whole, though, good experience and glad we're glad we did it.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Private overnight B &B Yacht Experience Kym 20 November 2021 Thank you for a wonderful yacht experience in our beautiful Sydney Harbour. The staff were fantastic and even checked on us in the evening when some unexpected wind impacted us once anchored. The food was fantastic and the yacht was more than comfortable. The sailing experience was perfect and the anchored spot was peaceful and quiet. This is a must do! We had a wonderful time thank you.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Unforgettable experience Carol 24 June 2018 The yacht is maintained well and interior is nicely designed. It has everything you need. The skippers were very friendly and on time as the tour described. Food is more than enough, only would have been good if it's warm, especially in winter time when we took the trip.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Relaxing and Romantic Sinead 11 October 2015 Great sail to the anchorage spot. Weather made it perfect. Lovely meal, yacht had everything we needed.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Sparkling Sydney Naomi1 25 February 2013 I have always wanted to do this experience - and my partner had never slept on Sydney Harbor before. I think that every Sydneysider must have at least one night on the harbor so that they understand the true beauty and peace of their harbor town. Our skipper was the perfect host catering for our request to truly sail the Hunter by putting it through it's paces. The food was delicious (though there was plenty of it)... and it is a chance to bring your favorite bottle of bubbles for this is the special occasion you have been waiting to use it for. Waking up on Sydney harbor was wonderful. The boat was new, pristine and everything we needed was on board.
