ITINERARY
Welcome Aboard
Welcome aboard the True North in magnificent Sydney Harbour. Be treated to a delicious dinner on board in one of the finest harbours in the world.
New Year's Eve
Wake up in the harbour and spend the day at Sydney’s famous Taronga Zoo, or take to the skies in our helicopter for a spectacular bird’s-eye view of the harbour. The adventure boats will tour through the harbour past Bradleys Head, Mrs Macquaries Chair, Kirribilli House and on to Woolloomooloo. Hop-off to walk through the beautiful harbourside Botanical Gardens before taking in the sights at Rushcutters Bay and Elizabeth Bay. Travel on to Rose Bay and take a beautiful city bushwalk up to The Gap and the Hornsby Lighthouse. Then return to the True North to ring in the New Year with a live band and see the Harbour Bridge fireworks from one of the most spectacular front-row seats in the house.
Pittwater
After a night to remember, enjoy breakfast in beautiful Pittwater. Walk to the Barrenjoey Lighthouse and beachcomb Pittwater before we return to the True North for a voyage past the Pittwater yacht clubs and onto the tranquil waters of the Hawkesbury River. There might also be a chance to walk from Longnose Point to Flint and Steel Bay through the beautiful Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park – Australia’s second oldest national park. Finish the day with a helicopter flight to the Hunter Valley and a wine tasting at our feature winery.
Jerusalem Bay
Wake up to the song of Jerusalem Bay cicadas and join our local guide as we explore beautiful Cowan Creek to learn about its rich history and rock art. Then, enjoy a refreshing swim at one of the Creek’s many sheltered beaches before rinsing off under a waterfall. Over lunch we’ll head to delightful Bantry Bay where you’ll be able to join an infamous True North ‘raft-up’.
Return to Sydney Harbour
As dawn breaks over the Hawkesbury, we’ll make our way back to Sydney Harbour - time to reminisce about your New Year’s adventure. Disembark early, carrying with you unforgettable memories of fireworks, secluded bays, and the perfect blend of celebration and serenity.
