A few changes would be worthwhile
At $150 it would have been reasonable to receive basic drinks included. Cruise route seemed a bit limited.

Pay Attention to detail
I thought that I had booked a tour, so I was expecting information happening about the places we went by etc along the way but it was actually just a restaurant on the water. Make it up as you go.
I ordered salmon as my main dish. It was so dry and served with baked potatoes. A bit unusual.
I have to say it was tasty but took awhile to eat because only had a little tiny bit of lemon. As the only moisture in the dish and spoon full of basil saucy stuff on the side. As I say tasty but dry.
Wasn't what I thought I'd booked

Good cruise but lacks commentary
Food was good and better than expected. Lovely crew. The only thing lacking was a commentary which would have made it much more interesting. We were told we could download an app but who wants to eat lunch while fussing with an app? One of the crew told us not everyone speaks English but most tourists outlets worldwide offer a commentary in English. Would I go again? No I’d opt for a cruise with commentary.

Just book/do it
Loved this 2 course window table guaranteed cruise. Service was excellent, nice wines that you could purchase via QR scanner at table. Covered all the sites. I'm originally a Sydney girl and this is my first luncheon cruise. I'd happily travel again and recommend it. Excellent value even on a not so sunny day

Wonderful way to see the City
First day in Sydney and we had this booked so we could see the bridge and the harbour. Great tour with a low key commentary. Our 3 course lunch was superb with some friendly service. You coudn't fault it and we were sorry to leave!
