Traveler reviews
Amazing evening
We attended an evening at the Sydney Opera House for Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony. We were guests of Viking Cruises & Emirates, Emirates are the Principal Partners. We received the VIP treatment, backstage tour, allowed on the Symphony stage, canapé, & drinks before & at intermission. Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony was conducted by Anja Bihlmaier. a wonderful experience.
Take a tour that’s longer than an hour
The tour of the Opera House was, of course, amazing…so amazing in fact that I highly recommend you do a tour that is longer than 1 hour. As for the dinner at Midden, the view of the Bridge lights for Vivid Sydney was amazing. However, the menu choices were extremely limited. In addition, the outdoor overhead heaters were cranked up even though it was a very mild night. I asked to turn down the one over us, but they didn’t. I felt like I was literally being baked by the heat. It was dreadful.
This was a great...
This was a great experience. We had a small group, which made it even better. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, and we got to explore a lot of the opera house and learn about its construction and history. The dinner was fantastic, with a great view. I would recommend this tour.
Gotta see when in Australia!
Tour guide was very well educated on the history and was able to answer any questions that were asked. The highlight of my vacation was
Private tour and dinner beautiful views
Private behind the scenes tour in a small group setting . It was wonderful to be able to see the theatre and catch a glimpse of the practice! The dinner was delicious it was very memorable experience!
