Afloat Cruises

I had booking for vivid show on June 15 for all my family, 2 adult and 2 kids. Waited for 45 mins in queue and returned empty hand :( Boat came in wharf to drop off passengers did not say anything at that time. After 30 mins some one (not from cruise team) advised boat is broken and advised to ask for refund with company. What a non sense no one from the cruise came to apologise. Did not take any initiation for alternative arrangement. I spent time and money (transportation) for nothing. Even i had to pay more for dinner as that was my dinner cruise. I strongly advise you not to use this cruise at any cost. You will gonna waste your money and time with this cruise.

Don’t ever choose this cruise. There was no buffet. Instead the food was distributed crudely by the cruise staffs. The food is tasteless and there is no table to put the food on. We had to put the dishes on our laps to eat. The plastic dishes were not that strong to hold as well. The drinks were served in small plastic cups. There was no discipline on the cruise. People didn’t stand in the queue. Some people stood in front of other people who were sitting on the chairs. They blocked the pathways, made lots of loud noises and refused to move away throughout the whole trip. The whole experience was a disaster. Money was wasted with nothing enjoyable at all.

I agree with all previous comments. We booked this cruise because it was a 2 hour cruise with buffet and 2 drinks which sounded great. The embarking was pretty chaotic. After trying to find someone to talk to we were told that the Afloat boat had broken down and we were upgraded to another boat - Constellation. Which probably meant twice as many people as we were with the passengers who had booked on the Constellation. It was very crowded. We were among the first to get our food and it was cold. There was no choice as it was all just put...

I bought 2 tickets for a 90-min Vivid cruise that included dinner and drinks. The boat was overcrowded and there were no tables to eat so they could fit more people. Food was disgusting: overcooked pasta with a tiny piece of chicken, 2 potatoes and a slice of bread served on a plastic dish (very handy when there's no table to eat and the boat is moving). No music, horrible view and very loud passengers.
They sold it as a luxury Vivid cruise, but it's nothing like that. Please save your money and go somewhere else.

MY SCORE: NEGATIVE 1

We attended a prime vivid dinner Saturday night.
Should have grabbed McDonalds & hired a water taxi.
What a rip off, no tables to eat your small questionable food on your but you did get your very own plastic plate with plastic knifes & forks. My wife and I are still debating what the meat was - chicken or pork as it had no flavour.
Advertised as an 2.5hr cruise but we were back & docked a little over 1.25hrs.
The people who run this business should be ashamed although if it wasn't for fools like me who didn't read the reviews prior to booking, they be broke by now.

WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT

This was the worst. The boat was old, not enough room, the windows inside you could barely see out of and no room to stand outside. The “buffet” food was a small piece of chicken, 3 green beans, par boiled potatoes we couldn’t stick a fork in, and some random pasta. Oh and dessert was a shot glass filled with jam. That’s right, jam.
Super disappointed and I was embarrassed I booked this cruise for a nice night out.
Do not book this cruise.

Don't go with afloat cruises. Groupon should also look into this. One of the worst cruises. The food was no great but I can disregard that. However it was said that It was a buffet, everyone only got like a quarter of my dinner portion (even less). $35 cruise, I shouldn't have expected too much of it. My advice. Go somewhere else.

Booked a vivid dinner cruise. Boat was overcrowded and long queues for food. Food was terrible and they ran out. Supposed to get dessert but none available. Cruise docked half an hour earlier than advertised. Total waste of money.

Went on a vivid cruise with a buffet including desert - well what a joke they run out of food all we got was a small piece of chicken and a couple of potatoes they ran out of bread roll beans and pasta and hardly any chicken. When I enquired about desert they said they were not serving desert as it took so long to serve dinner they didn't have time to serve desert - makes me wonder if they had ever planned on serving desert as half the staff knew nothing about it when I first enquired .I said that's ok we can eat on the run but flatly refused t...

My wife and I attended your 9.45pm Queen Mary 2 cruise last night. (Saturday 24 February)

I appreciate the fact that changes were made with the scheduling of the QM2. Something above your control

My first issue of concern was that when boarding, our check on validation was no not even checked.
We were simply given 2 free drink vouchers with the comment “ enjoy”.

In this time of uncertainty, more care should have been taken., ...

The boat did not show - left passengers in the lurch -
I give them a zero rating.
When trying to contact company no one answers the phone - Do not book any cruised with them.

Give this company and the company he’s just bought a very wide berth absolutely disgusting he can’t refund people but brags about buying a new company in Sydney
This company was on Facebook promising issues were being dealt with only to do exactly the same thing to people on Australia Day it’s a disgrace this company still has a license to operate it needs investigations into its activities and the way it operates

NOT RECOMMENDED - This cruise gets one star because there is nothing lower. Where to start with all the reasons to NOT book a cruise with this company...Person checking people onto the boat was rude and totally unprofessional, despite being told there was a "15 minute window" to board passengers and depart, the cruise left 25 minutes late, the entire top deck was booked out to a private party leaving hundreds of other passengers to crowd onto the lower deck with nowhere near enough seating, the food was completely misrepresented in the advertis...

We booked for the Australia Day Dinner Cruise in Sydney and like every other review it started of poorly on the Dock and just went down hill from the time we set foot on the boat. There is absolutely NO professional services offered by this Company, the food was like slops and what was on offer run out half through the dinner service and guests where left with a choice of chic peas or dry pasta for there dinner. I along with most of the other guests have wrote to the company and did not even get a reply, an apology or an offer of a refund for...

Like a previous reviewer we booked the Australia Day Cruise in Sydney. Every point the previous reviewer stated was exactly our experience. Because the boat was late running passengers missed the Ferry Race. There was always a slow moving queue for the food and like us if you wanted to stay on deck so as to not miss the activities on the Harbour you missed out on the food. There was not enough food for all on board and we basically got a few scrapes which were not worth eating. (My knife broke trying to cut the meat). Desert was a small lamming...
