“I bought 2 tickets for my partners birthday. Wow, what a great 2 hours... Cruising around Docklands and the bay. Everything was great. The food was very tasty and we were full at the end of the cruise. Never ending sparkling wine, tea and coffee. The staff were friendly and efficient. The boat was clean and in good condition. We had a table for 2 downstairs, there are also tables upstairs. Highly recommend.”

“We booked our corporate end of year celebrations on Magic Charters and we were very happy with the service, food and facilities. Natasha was always available to answer any questions in the lead up and we felt very well taken care of by Natasha and Angelo on the boat. We had a fabulous time and honestly the stand out was the delicious food they served! 3 course meal that could stand up against many top notch restaurants!! Thank you!!”

“Fantastic cruise. The menu and drinks on offer was amazing. The staff were very attentative to our needs and the freshly caught (that morning) oysters were to die for, I've never tasted any sweeter or tastier than them. The captain pointed out there was a seal outside which was exciting to see. Melbourne, what a beautiful place to be.”

“My wife and I went on the High Tea afternoon cruise out of Docklands. Everything was 100% fantastic. Attentive and friendly staff who were present but not over-bearing. Lovely spread of food and drink. A nice voyage on an immaculate vessel, which showed us parts of the city and water that we had not previously seen.
Can't recommend it highly enough and will definitely treat friends to this experience as a gift.

“We did the dinner cruise and sun set. What a great night. The food was fantastic and the staff were awesome. Music was great, and the cruise was so relaxed. Danced and met some really nice people. The scenery was amazing, just lucky to get some good weather.
We recommend this cruise.!!!”

“My 2 daughters and myself went on the high tea cruise on Mother’s Day and had the best day ever. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The food was amazing, hot, fresh and very tasty. Highly recommend it to anyone thinking of doing one.”

“Great organized crew made for a smooth and enjoyable adventure. The yacht was in great condition access to the bow offered sweet relief to the heat of 38c in the city. The views of the Westgate and Bolts bridges were something else. The city views were electric. The staff were attentive, friendly and served us well. The catering for the passengers was well received, the drinks were cold and savoured.”
