    There was a well experienced and friendly crew on board. They did their best successfully and anytime someone need assistance or help a crew-member was around. Thanks to the team.

    Our host Johanna was amazing and very professional. She made sure my family had a good time, offered to take pictures and made our experience enjoyable. When and if an opportunity presents itself, I'd visit again.

    Getting started

    • Views of iconic Sydney landmarks: See key harbour landmarks from the water, including the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge and the city skyline as the light changes.

    • Snacks served on selected cruises: Enjoy grazing platter snacks on board when included with your option, so you can nibble while you cruise.

    • Complimentary drinks on board: Sip on one complimentary beverage, such as wine, beer, soft drink or water as per the option selected, with additional beverages available to purchase on board.

    Wrapping up
