Sydney Harbour is an epicentre of excitement during the festive season and being outrageously spoilt on-board the True North is the penultimate option to experience all! Begin with a sumptuous dinner on one of the most beautiful harbours in the world! Spend a day exploring the harbour before starting the New Year with a bang as we park the TRUE NORTH ‘bridge-side’ for one of the world’s most spectacular fireworks displays. And then spend the next 2 days soaking-up the tranquillity of the Hawkesbury - wilderness on the doorstep of Australia’s largest city! No need to call a taxi - you don’t even need a reservation for dinner! A truly very different way to experience Sydney!
