Great way to see Sydney by water

5.00This was a great way to see Sydney by water. You can take the ferry for 48 which is helpful. I recommend taking the cruise at night to see the city but you do not have the option to hop on and off. The zoo was a good experience but seems better for younger children than teenagers.

5.00The Captain Cook hop on hop off boat was easy to locate and they provided a detailed schedule for drop off and pick up. The Tarongo Zoo was a wonderful experience. So much to see. The animals looked to be well taken care of. Would highly recommend.

5.00Little confusion with operator finding our booking, but very helpful and managed to sort it out for us.
Work out what you want to see and check value for money before booking

3.00Obviously the actual cruise is stunning but you can get that on the ferries too. I've given a lower rating as the frequency of hop on and hop off stops is ridiculous and not consistent. There's a period in the afternoon when you get stranded somewhere for hours without the ability to move. I had to get a standard ferry to meet my family at the zoo in the afternoon then there were no options to go elsewhere that day. So top tip only go to the zoo in the mornings. I completely wasted my second day ticket, didn't use it at all.
Great tour of Sydney
