Great Food, Great Scenery, Great Fun and Atmosphere

Onboard a real live Paddlewheel Showboat! 

Indulge in savouries- served upon boarding, the Chef's homemade entrees and a sumptuous Banquet Main Course. Treat yourself to fresh King prawns, whole baked deep sea snapper, succulent leg ham, tender roast turkey, pork or lamb, our hot savoury rice, potato bake and a variety of delicious fresh salad dishes. The banquet is followed by the Chef's homemade dessert and tea and coffee with after dinner mints. The quality of food, especially our  Banquet Smorgasboard main course, is a key feature of the many positive customer comments and feedback letters we receive.      

See in the New Year with a complimentary bottle of champagne on your table prior to midnight, or enjoy a tantalising cocktail from our fully licensed bar* as you stroll the 360 degree viewing decks. Be treated to music, dancing and revelry - or relax at you table or on the open air verandahs taking in the views of the Blue Mountains National Park - the choice is yours. For a fantastic evening of festivities and fun, with a delectable menu, great company, professional service and a friendly atmosphere you can't go past a Nepean River New Years Eve Party Cruise on the Nepean Belle Paddlewheeler.

The spectacular mountain gorge scenery of the Blue Mountains National Park and the majestic Nepean Gorge will be floodlit from the vessels onboard spotlights. The wonderful views of this special landscape are certainly worth adding to your list of  lifetime "must dos."

The boats will be in position to view the Penrith Panthers Fireworks scheduled for 9pm and Midnight.
