Drive south from Johannesburg to a place in the sunshine where the fun never stops. Luxurious Vaal River cruises offered by the Riviera on Vaal Hotel & Country Club in Vereeniging provide a charming alternative to the usual teambuilding and birthday party functions. Watch the sun set in the distance while sipping on a glass of Zorgvliet wine just before you attend the formal black tie dinner aboard the iconic Petit Verdot.

The Petit Verdot floating restaurant comes fully equipped with a kitchen and cocktail bar which makes it the ideal venue for corporate functions. Seating 70 people for a sit down dinner and up to 120 people for a stand-up cocktail function the elegance of the boat is never compromised.

For an incredibly low fee cruisers can indulge in a sumptuous five course gourmet meal while the boat cruises along at a slow pace. Whether you prefer a Sunday afternoon spitbraai event on board of one of the most famous floating restaurants or a more formal black tie evening event, the Petit Verdot offers magnificence not equalled by any other dining experience. Bookings can be done if you and a few friends want to join one of our Saturday afternoon trips from 12 to 3 o'clock while our chefs provide a spitbraai for the guests.

Simply call the central reservations number to book a corporate function, Christmas lunch occasion, romantic date, wedding or engagement party on board of the Petit Verdot named after one of the acclaimed Zorgvliet wine cultivars.
