Perth Swan River Dinner Cruise

Nice way to spend an evening

Excellent food and service. Nice music and very relaxed evening. Only negative is the dining area at the rear next to the bar is quite noisy from the engines and too far away from the entertainment to hear.

Definitely do it again

The service was outstanding staff friendly fantastic customer service and the food was excellent …!! A flawless experience I would recommend this service to everyone

Met up with various different groups of people. Was able to get everyone by the end of the trip on the dance floor. We had an awesome time. Great company and great selection of food

Wonderful way to celebrate

We had a fabulous night for my daughter's 30th birthday. food, drinks, service and dance music were all wonderful. Thank you so much.

Rip off

Went Saturday night in group tour, very pricey, I had one drink, I felt a bit sick so I asked for a small roll, I already had eaten 1 , no I was told, food ok, far too short , we came back to port at 9.20 , friend asked for another drink but was told no, the bar had closed at 9.20 , total rip off , I had been to several before and the night went a lot longer, just interested in ripping people off, come on 7 to 9.20 for $170 , it’s all about money, and heaven forbid one roll

A lovely experience and worth doing

A great way to see the sunset over the city along with great food and entertainment. There was a serious electrical storm the night we went which added extra excitement to the overall great experience. You don't go too far down the river, more back and forth across in front of the city, but all the same well worth the money.

Dinner cruise

Myself and two of my sons went on the Swan river dinner cruise. We all really enjoyed it. The food was very good, and plenty of it. Lovely wine to go with it. Lovely views of Perth lights. I would recommend it

Must Do

The whole experience was great,the food was plentiful & delicious.The crew were excellent & so was the entertainment. A must do when in Perth

A dinner cruise to remember

Unbelievable value for money, the food & service was 5 star the entertainment was also the best we have experienced on any trip of this kind DON'T MISS OUT

Good fun. Good music. Good food and lots of it.

Blowing a gale but a very smooth trip. Fabulous food lots of drink, most included. Don’t get talked into premium rate, it does not give you much choice of other alcohol.

Not worth the money!!

We decided to go on the Perth Swan River Dinner Cruise with family who had come to visit from overseas. We were excited to show them a little bit of Perth but we left this cruise very disappointed. The service was great and the food was okay, but the view was non-existent as soon as we left the jetty. This was a huge disappointment since this was one of the reasons we booked this cruise. To clarify, the website states that departure is at 7:00 pm and an email was sent out to arrive 10 min early. When we got there we were told that the departure time was 7:30 pm and not 7:00 pm which meant that we did not get to see the sunset onboard, and instead just the reflection of ourselves in the windows. I hope the departure time will be clearly stated for future guests and I would also hope to see an option for a discounted non-alcoholic package. Without these changes, I would not recommend this cruise to family and friends as a walk around the city would have provided us with the same view, and dinner at the restaurant somewhere in the city would have cost half of what it did out there.

Great cruise on the Swan River.

Cruise was a wonderful way to spend an evening. Staff, food and music were great. Was nice to have the drinks included too! Would highly recommend this cruise.

Lovely way to spend Monday evening

Views from the boat to Perth and on to Fremantle werr stunning. Food and service were excellent. Very good.

Perfect way to spend a relaxing evening!

Fantastic way to finish our holiday in Australia. The crew were really attentive and helpful. Food was excellent and plenty of it!! Entertainment was perfect fir the evening too. Such a relaxing evening. Not to be missed!!

Don’t go at night - go in the day!

Great trip but wished we’d taken it in daylight. We thought it would be good to see the city at night for a different perspective but in reality we didn’t see much at all. The staff and food were 5/5 but overall we picked the wrong cruise.

Awesome service

From start to finish my wife and I had the best time. Awesome service from the crew. Food was lovely. Overall awesome experience

Great Experience

Had a fantastic time on the dinner cruise. The whole experience was very well done. Great service from the onboard staff, very attentive and welcoming. The dinner buffet was delicious with lots of variety and plenty of it! The DJ played lots of dancing music for anyone in the mood. For anyone wanting a quieter evening there are lots of spaces on the boat to do that. Being such a hot summer's night the trip on the river was cooling and fresh. Would definitely recommend this cruise.

Really enjoyed it

It was great, a commentary may have been a good to know what youbare seeing. But the food, staff and entertainment were great

Nice experience, with excellent crew

Nice experience. Could have improved by maybe departing earlier so guests can see some of the river views before sunset. Also my instructions were to see the ticketing window for ticket validation 30 mins before departure. The ticketing window was unattended. We were a group of 14, ended up joining the queue for boarding with fingers crossed. Was all okay and the crew were fantastic. Couldnt fault them. Good variety of food - just watch the chilli levels, even the coleslaw was hot hot hot.

Best night out in Perth

Just amazing as always! Third year celebrating our wedding anniversary onboard a Captain Cook Perth Dinner Cruise! Everything from the food, service and drinks is amazing! This year the menu was different and still enjoyable! Especially desert! The only negative is when it all ends and you're just in the mood to keep dancing. Look forward to our next cruise soon! 😀

The sunset swan river cruise up to Free mantle and back from Elizabeth quay.

The whole experience from beginning to the end was amazing. The staff were polite and helpful. The food was beyond my expectations. We had all inclusive with drinks and bevarages and the wine was a nice one on the standard package. Thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Excellent Night Dinner Cruise experience

It was a very nice experience. Food was great, company hilarious and the noise in the downstairs dining area super loud. But hey it’s a fun scenic ride.

Sunset dinner cruise

Went on the sunset dinner cruise and it was fantastic ,food,music and staff all great,would highly recommend

Dining on the swan river

It was a brilliant evening. Great views of Perth. Great food and the staff were amazing. Live entertainment was excellent.

Kerry Fabio we both deaf

We had great time on cruise lovely food my tummy is full n nice trip n view city wow amazing see most of light thank you all crew staff great service

Captivating experience

That was a captivating experience! The city lights draped the night with sheer elegance, casting an enchanting aura. The buffet spread was a delightful feast for the senses—impeccable flavors reflecting Aussie culinary finesse. The live piano melodies lent an air of sophistication, while Saturday's lively ambiance was infectious! The beverage selection, especially the local wines, added an authentic touch. A memorable night of scenic beauty, fantastic music, and delightful indulgence!"

Disappointing dinner cruise

Sadly we found the Swan River dinner cruise disappointing! We were sat on the tiniest of tables right at the back of the boat where the engines were the loudest noise we could hear for most of the trip. The food wasn’t bad, but by the time we were allocated our slot to visit the buffet, some things had run out. We needed to keep asking for our drinks to be topped up and the lighting in the boat made us feel we were on a cheap public ferry. We have been on a captain cook wine tour previously which was excellent from start to finish, so we were very disappointed that this trip didn’t come anywhere close to our expectations.

Enjoyable evening

Beautiful trip, staff were just so lovely and friendly nothing was a problem, the entertainment was absolutely awesome, she had an amazing voice we really enjoyed her, dinner was yummy plenty to pick from, Took heaps of photos

Most enjoyable night !

Had a friend with me from N.Z and we both enjoyed the night . Food was great and ticked all the boxes , entertainment ambiance & friendly staff . I will do it again one day .

OUTSTANDING!

School River Cruise An outstanding service provided. The students were engaged with the DJ service and all enjoyed the dinner and desserts provided. The staff were exceptional throughout the night. I'd like to acknowledge Matt, our Captain for his professionalism and understanding whilst we dealt with a sensitive issue towards the end of the evening. Would highly recommend Captain Cook Cruises, especially for large group bookings!

Curl the mow.

Dinner cruise is a must while in Perth, food was great, staff were friendly and the atmosphere was excellent. Would definitely come again.

Fantastic Swan River Dinner Cruise

What a fantastic night out! Upon boarding the boat the we were greeted by the lovely Cruise Director who was looking so professional and was very friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed the absolutely delightful buffet dinner and desserts. The lady singing was fantastic we danced the night away!! We will totally recommend this Dinner Cruise it was brilliant. Thankyou Captain Cook Cruises

AMAZING from start to finish!

From the moment we were checked onto the boat, our experience was positive. The staff were outstanding - professional, friendly and super efficient. Could not fault the service or the experience in any way. Communication from the driver was excellent in terms of the plan for the evening and staff were more than attentive. What a wonderful way to celebrate my partner's birthday. I am definitely going to look into the other cruises on offer as it was the wonderful service and positive vibe I enjoyed so much. The live singer (Calista? I think...) was also outstanding and the food was sensational. A wonderful, relaxing evening.

No parking nearby as...

No parking nearby as there were festivals on nearby. Cruise should have started around 6pm so could enjoy the sunset on boat

Enjoyable evening food was good but wouldn’t go at night again as you don’t see anything. Value of money not good.

The staff and food were great but value for money not so good. Wouldn’t go at night again as you don’t see anything.

Brilliant as always

Brilliant as always. Went as a couple and were seated with another couple over from Adelaide, had a great time lots of laughs. Food was excellent as always, entertainment great. Can't fault this trip.

Excellent way to end a week in Perth

Great value for money, great service and excellent food! Entertainment was really good! Views were amazing.

Loved every minute

We absolutely loved everything in this trip, the staff were fantastic, we upgraded to the premium drinks package, well worth it. The food was fantastic, music was great.

Very good food and wine; excellent staff.

Lovely evening cruise in spite of drizzly weather. The food was varied and enjoyable and the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.

A leisurely evening on the river with good food and wine

A very leisurely trip on the Swan river. Food was very tasty and a good selection available. Singer was good. We were a little disappointed we didn't have any commentary as to where we were on the river and what we had just passed.

Better than expected

Such a great night. Atmosphere, staff, and entertainment were awesome. Definitely recommend this dinner cruise to anyone who wants to see the Swan River / Perth at night. Definitely topped our holiday visit to Perth and a great way to celebrate a special occasion. Thankyou.

Perth Swan River evening cruise a brilliant experience

Captain Cook cruises and staff are such a professional organisation. Meals/views & music flawless 🙏 Our 4th cruise with them with more to come. "Kelea" local music talent well worth checking out on Spotify also.

Good but really loud

The cruise and food were great, we really enjoyed it. The only thing we didn’t enjoy was how loud the live entertainment was. It was like we were at a concert rather than on a dinner cruise and it made it really hard to catch up with our friends who had just flown in from NZ, because you couldn’t hear each other talk.

Not worth the price

Very disappointing I thought it be a bigger boat and could learn about the Swan River the amount you pay only to have one choice of red wine shariz was terrible unfortantly brang family from Melbourne and it was very average

Fantastic cruise

The cruise was wonderful, great value for money!!!! As much food and drink as you wanted and the live entertainment was fantastic! I can highly recommend this cruise as a great night to experience.

Everything was well organised and pleasant. I love how there was so many choices of food eat from. Staff were amazing!!

It was best experience I’ve ever had! The city view, the tour, music, food, the Taff and how comfortable everything was!

Very disappointing experience!

The constant screaming from a hens’ party at the next table ruined our evening!The noise level was terrible and drink service poor to our table!Multiple circles to optus stadium and not many other lights were disappointing and all inall the experience was not worth what we paid!

Lovely experience

The food was amazing and the views were great. At the end of the evening we sat up on the open air deck to enjoy our drinks while listening to the live performer. Lovely experience, would highly recommend.

Dinner cruise

Yesterday, we almost missed our dinner cruise as we followed the google map via viator that told us to meet at Barrack Square 30mins before departure time at 730pm. There was no banner or staff to receive us from 655pm till 715pm. Luckily, i went to one of the berth and saw captain cook cruise docked at the opposite berth and saw people sitting inside.. we quickly walked there knowing that by 720pm, the check-in would be closed as stated on viator booking document. We would like to suggest for a staff to park at the mentioned meeting point or pls indicate the no. of the berth so that in the near future, tourists can be clear of your meeting point via your viator app. Overall, program was great and we had a great time as a family gathering. The buffet was great and beverages were great too. Will recommend this itinerary to our family and friends. Keep up the good work! Thanks again for adding this to our tour experience.
