The food was absolutely delicious 😋. The choice of food was excellent and I enjoyed using the QR code to order our drinks. I looked the name of the wine I choose The Fat Bastard .It added to the fun of the experience. We were on table 144 and Vanessa who served us was exceptional. She was so lovely, friendly and respectful. Vanessa was the cream on the top of an amazing experience.

The Gold Penfolds Luxury 6-Course Dinner Cruise was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The ambience was elegant, with stunning views that set the perfect backdrop for an evening of indulgence. The staff provided exceptional service, ensuring every moment felt special. The highlight for me was the exquisite pairing of food and wine, with each course thoughtfully designed to complement the next. Every dish was a masterpiece, and the wines elevated the flavors beautifully. We absolutely loved the entire experience and will definitely recommend this cruise to our friends. It’s a must-do for anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion or simply enjoy a luxurious evening out!
