Mandalay brings classic fun to Sydney Harbour cruises with its spacious 30-meter refurbished timber ferry design that fits big groups comfortably. This beauty holds up to 193 guests across multiple decks, letting everyone spread out for chats, views, or dances. The huge open-top deck and accessible bow catch breezes and panoramas, while the large saloon and lounge areas offer shaded spots to relax.

Plentiful seating keeps things cozy, and the wide stable beam glides smoothly through waters. Pet-friendly vibes make it great for family outings or casual crews exploring the harbour.Every trip on Mandalay gets a lift from features that mix food, drinks, and entertainment just right. Fire up wood-fired pizzas from the onboard oven or grill on the gas BBQ to share hot bites with the group.

Beer taps flow at the licensed bar, fridges chill extras, and BYO works for smaller crowds. Hook up tunes to the sound system or belt karaoke favorites that echo over waves. Add the lilypad for wa

"Australia Day, wood-fired pizza, and drinks—we were blessed with perfect weather and a not-overcrowded experience. The pizzas were delicious, the drinks were flowing, and the staff were friendly. Thank you for a few wonderful hours on the harbour!"

"Charming and unique old ferry that gets you to all the best spots around the harbour. We hired the Mandalay for the afternoon with 120 guests. Bella and the Mandalay crew went out of their way to make sure everything went smoothly in the lead-up and on the day. Highly recommended for parties big and small. Get the pizza!"
