A great journey around Sydney seeing all the important sights. A good tour to do when getting your bearings or in a quick journey through Sydney
Late afternoon weather was perfect to see the harbour and to see a partial sunset with low clouds in the sky. Saw all the iconic sites like the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge & Luna Park with local flair & humor added by the guide pointing out all the sites. It was a relaxing way to see the sites after flying in to Sydney earlier that day.
A great way to stop and see the sights of Sydney Harbour. It was such a relaxing way to spend some of your afternoon. Staff were friendly and the information and knowledge over the PA was informative and at times funny.
You get a lot of nice views up close and learn a lot! Would definitely recommend. We enjoyed the sights.
Visited Sydney with our teenage kids. The last time we were all in this beautiful city together was 15 years ago! So we had to show them how beautiful the harbour is. They absolutely loved it. And what a comfortable easy way to view one of the best harbours in the world. We will definitely do it again and again. Until our next visit, Sydney stay beautiful ❤️
I would not recommend this there are far better options with similar prices. The customer service is terrible they don’t care about your experience as long as they get the money.
Good look at Sydney from the water. Not the most exciting experience but if you’d like a calm ride and some history you’ll get it
Look no further. I had less than a day to explore Sydney and I’m so glad I booked this tour. It was pleasant, informative, humorous, and absolutely gorgeous views. It fits perfectly with any other activities in the city. Just do it!
The cruise itself was great. The person who managed the on boarding of clients as they arrive was horrible. We arrived almost an hour early looking around for someone about where we were supposed to board in the circular quay. We checked repeatedly over that time, and there was never anyone at the kiosk or information provided. Finally at 12:15 before a 1220 boarding we began trying to find someone and sending out the word that we looking for someone because they were not clear directions on where to board at the dock. At 12:19 a man walked into the booth and I said we are here for the 1220 boat cruise. Literally his response was “not sure you can make it, it’s over there. You have one minute.” Then he laughed at us and we raced around the dock to make it “over there”. Had it not been for the gracious crew that saw us waving & yelling. we would’ve missed it. Never again will I take one of your cruises because they are great, but your people who work at the dock in the Booth were absent and absolutely terrible. I will also note that the couple who was behind us after seeing our experience, turned around and left.
