  We booked the Easter Sunday lunch jazz cruise for six people and paid $85 for concession and $95 for full-freight adult tickets. The experience was not what was promoted. One singer and a guitarist does not constitute a jazz band.. The tables indoor were severely crowded to the point the people next to our table had to vacate their seating just so we could leave our seats to get to the buffet. The buffet had reasonable quality prawns and oysters but all downhill from here. Roast beef was appallingly tough and accompanied by unimaginitive pasta salad, dried roasted vegetables and cole-slaw. This buffet was an insult. The boat was an ageing and overcrowded vessel from an era well-prior to the more generous glass-walled and spacious offerings of more recent times. The small windows might have afforded a limited harbour view from the tables but views were obstructed by blue-tac affixed cheap and tacky Easter decorations of large eggs and delirious ducklings. We escaped to the top outdoor deck only to be surrounded by smokers and vapers intent on oversharing their tattooed limbs and Spotify playlists. The end to this three hour debacle couldn't come fast enough.

  Crew are lovely and food was really tasty except for the bread rolls. They were a bit dry. Nice music and couldn’t have asked for better views. Thank you

  We went out on the Jazz lunch cruise on 19/9 for hubby's birthday. We had a great time - the staff were awesome and the singer even remembered us from 5 years prior on his birthday. The food was different due to COVID measures but we had a great time. We'll be back!

  This cruise was a gift from my daughter and became a time that we will treasure! The ship was very well set out and comfortable and it moved at a slow-moderate pace which was wonderful for observing everything. The staff were so very friendly and helpful. The food was beautiful and they were extremely generous. Enjoying a lovely cruise and a beautiful lunch while enjoying being entertained made it a very special day. Relaxing, enjoyable, fun, yummy food, lovely people. Thank you Vagabond.

  This was my fourth trip with Vagabond cruises, and what a beautiful experience it was again despite all the restrictions impose by COVID-19. This is one of the few companies that offer a three hours cruise around the lovely Sydney harbour. The service was excellent, very friendly and professional staff, ready to serve and help, have to mention specially Eliana , prompt, polite, efficient. I cruise before with some of my overseas visitors and I can’t wait to do it again. I highly recommend this cruise to anyone who will like to enjoy a good time , food, music and the unbelievable views of Sydney harbour..

  We just completed a Jazz luncheon cruise and must say it was one of the best we have experience in a long time. With Covid19, when we boarded the oysters and prawns along with a Greek salad was already on the table along with a bread roll. Luch was server either beef or chicken (table service) then desert cakes and fruit with tea and coffee. We had the drink package which was also enjoyable. Things have changed since Covid, however we need to get use to it. A special mention to Elaine who was friendly, helpful and very professional

  We had a fantastic time today (8 March 2020) on the Sunday jazz lunch cruise, celebrating my Dad’s 80th birthday with our kids!! The food was great (especially the fresh prawns and oysters), the music was good and the service was excellent - especially Gabriela, the beautiful cruise director! Thanks for all the personal attention and for making this such a special day. Paul

  Our cruise started from King Street Wharf 9, and it was a really relaxing cruise with yummy fresh food...roast beef, chicken lovely legs, prawns and oysters and lots of salads and sides, breads and sauces!! I was very surprised, as to the quality. The cakes and fruit with our post lunch coffee/ tea was nice. An improvement might be to offer some chocolates or add biscuits to the dessert buffet..also the jazz singer was good, but I feel that she was not dressed for the occasion...black jeans and open sandals...I think a bit of attention paid to the costuming of the jazz singer would go really far...perhaps a smart 20s styled outfit with the appropriate hairstyle...just a suggestion...
