Our experience on board Dreamtime completely exceeded our expectations! Smart Cruiser Sydney have provided an incredibly thorough service from beginning to end and created an amazing day for my guests with beautiful décor, amazing food and personalised service from staff on board. We will be keeping Smart Cruiser Sydney’s details on file and be booking them for another “money can’t buy” experience on Sydney Harbour!”

The Boat:

Own by Noakes Group, this beautiful original timber boat has been sailing Sydney harbour since 1939. She is has been beautifully maintained for all these years and is one of the best looking ferry left on Sydney harbour. A great team of passionate people run the boat and you will enjoy the quality of the personal service provided. With a capacity of up to 270 guests, Proclaim was built to become a charter boat – not a ferry – and therefore she has a great set uo for all types of events.
