I should have read the description more closely. This was a large ship with a dining and dancing experience. I was looking for a descriptive cruise of the Sydney harbor area. The only description provided was a pamphlet. I did get a free beer though.

Nice boat that even featured a little live music as we toured the harbor. Lots to see in Sydney (!!!) and this little cruise did a good job from the water. No narriation so you need to know what you are looking at already, but it looks great from the water!!

Great knowledgeable guide. You're able to visit the main hall. Well worth doing if you're visiting Sydney

The cheese and wine and views of Sydney Harbour. It was relaxing and enjoyed going up to top deck. Missed the commentary as did not know how to listen without headphones.

I am 50, my father 75, and yes, we are yank Americans. I start with that to say, "No, we are not 'entitled'." We each have worked hard for what we have. So here is my review: I was quite put off by the way things transpired. It start with my talking to the sales girl the day before (buying the tickets). It was made clear that my father and I are into photography and would like a 'window' seat. That was guaranteed when purchasing this (3 hr) lunch cruise. The sales girl then asked if one of us was celebrating a birthday, in which this is the week my father is turning 75. Nicely, she gave us a discount. That is definitely appreciated. However, somewhere in that, we lost our window seats. Stepping on board they have a designated table they seat you at. Not being a window table I went back to the seaters to ask. I was told that was an extra $30 per person upgrade. ????? Okay? So what happened to the 'guaranteed window seats' we had? Well, fine, we will go with what we have. So we sit and they give us one (1) glass of nasty tap water each. I press on this one glass as you will read shortly. So now, there is a QR code for drinks and menu. Hmmmmm? Well, we are from outside Australia and do not have cellular coverage or internet on our phones. Asking for menus, the (appearant to be) waitress of ours visibly gets put off herself at our saying we cannot use the QR code and need menus. She comes back with menus and my father starts to ask, " what drinks are include...," to which she immediately turns her back, walks away, and turned our table over to another person to serve us. The next person, to take over, was good. He was in a whote shirt (uniform), not a wait staff uniform. Once again, we asked about what drinks were included. He was not sure so he went to check. NOTHING! PERIOD! ... Not even coffee. That afore mentioned one glass of tap water was it! ... For a three hour harbor cruise. NO drinks are included. I had one (with alcohol) and my father had one (with alcohol). That was another $30 somthing. Sodas were around $5 each. The whole window thing I will attribute to getting lost somewhere in the transaction. The lack of supplied (at least one) drinks is pathetic. The, to be, waitresses actions are inexcusable.

My wife and I went on a beautiful Sunday afternoon cruise. We took a 2 hour cruise embarking at the Captain Cook Wharf, Darling Harbour/Barrangaroo and disembarking at Circular Quay. We paid only $55 per head with the Premium upgrade. Great value (I don’t recall why we got the $10 p.h. discount.) Th cheese and charcuterie plate was tasty and plentiful (we could not finish). It consisted of salami, prosciutto, 3 types of cheese, olives, assorted dried fruits, assorted nuts bowl, crackers, toasted bread rounds and plump fresh strawberries. The plate was enjoyed with a glass each of icy cold beer and bubbly, respectively, with easy-listening live guitar music and vocalist. Our $10 per head discount was spent on some cloudy apple ciders during the second hour of our cruise. A couple of tips for the budget conscious: For a light brunch/lunch before embarking, I don’t think that you will find anything more economical than UME, a Japanese style hamburger joint. We shared Japanese style fried chicken (boneless) and chips for $20 all-up. If disembarking at Circular Quay there is a tiny bottle shop where can grab a couple of bottles to take back to your accommodation. Prices start at $5 per bottle for drink-in-park plonk up to some good quality wines.

A beautiful way to see the harbour and the Opera House from different angles. Staff were friendly. I would suggest upgrading to premium package.

The dives were incredible but some of the key staff members were pretty rude and I was charged for things I probably shouldn’t have been. I paid for two dives and extra to have a guide on both. The first dive, I did not have a guide despite them telling me I would (I didn’t know this until I was in the water). I struggled with my buoyancy and then was told after the dive by the lead diver that it was frustrating HIM?? He was, unfortunately, my guide on the second dive and basically ignored me. I also paid for pictures that were taken underwater - some of me and some that the photographer took of the scenery. The problem is that when the photos were transferred to my phone, I could see they were very old (the date of the picture transferred). People on the boat were talking about how we didn’t see half of the things in the pictures. I wouldn’t care so much if they didn’t charge extra for the additional photos - one was from 2004!!!

Nice, short, basic cruise. Would book Main Harbor cruise instead. Cheese plate was nice. Not too crowded. Audio guide was good. Live music made it difficult to hear audio guide
