The experience

The yacht leaves with a bilingual guide in English and Chinese who narrates the route as you pass K11 musea mall and the Avenue of Stars on the way into the harbour. The boat positions you to watch "A Symphony of Lights" (the world's largest multimedia light and music show) at 7:20pm, when the skyline erupts across the water. You see the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre's iconic waterfront architecture, the Hong Kong Observation Wheel, and the full sweep of Victoria Harbour between Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula.

The 360-degree outdoor flybridge means you're not watching through glass. You stand in the open air as the city lights up. An onboard butler handles photography so you can be in the frame instead of behind the camera. The boat stocks Hong Kong speciality beers available for purchase, and unlimited soft drinks and snacks are included: a setup built around the local craft beer culture that sets this route apart from other harbour cruises in the city.
