I was pleasantly impressed by the smooth ride. Im not the best person to take out on the water. This was a lovely evening treat. The service was reassuring, calm and made me feel safe. The views were so pretty.
I highly recommend this activity. 10/10.
Thank you

We went on a Sunset dinner package for our 20th wedding anniversary and it was an absolutely amazing experience, fitting of such a special event.
The Gondolier was an absolute delight, before and after the cruise, whilst we barely noticed him during the cruise, so we had a very private time to ourselves with a fantastic dinner. The office staff went out of their way to cater for us at Very short notice.
We definitely recommend Gold Coast Gondolas for any special event.

I booked the sunset dinner cruise for a suprise for our wedding anniversary with my husband. We arrived at the Gold Coast 4 days before our anniversary and it didn't stop raining. I was worried about our dinner cruise being rained out. It stopped raining but was very overcast and thought it would be disappointing but the care and attention given to make our cruise enjoyable really made the difference. The gondola is lovely warm and comfortable. The 2 course meal was huge and really delicious. Bottle of champagne,beer and beautiful red roses made the night
exceptional. No we didn't see a sunset(too cloudy) but we saw the full moon rise. The cruise along the canals was very romantic with going from daylight to dark with all the lights come on. No one can control the weather but it was still a fantastic night. Looking forward to coming back for another anniversary and hope we get better weather. Thank you to the staff that made it such a special experience.

This was an amazing experience. Loved how the meal was served as soon as you were seated so it was still hot. The meal was absolutely delicious. We had the fettuccine & barramundi meals & could not fault. We cruised around the canals for 1 & 1/2 hrs it was very relaxing & fabulous to see all the beautiful mansions. The lindt chocolates were a lovely extra. The staff were very friendly & fantastic. We are from NZ & would 110% highly recommend this to anyone
