Decent harbour views

OK experience of the harbor. Opted for the “premium” package with a glass of wine and cheese board, which was average. Tour started 10-15 minutes late because the boat was back late and blocked by another of their vessels. But ended on time, which means we cut out 10-15 minutes of the harbor tour. The phone app (only way to hear about the sites) was glitchy, took forever to load, and they didn’t tell you about WiFi unless you ask. By the time we were able to set it up, we already were past the first few harbor points. Maybe worth the US$50/person price, and fair way to see the harbor in 90 minutes…
Good experience

What a relaxing way to view Sydney. The experience allowed us to see the Opera House from all views and we were able to get some spectacular pictures of many iconic landmarks. The tour was organized, the snacks were delicious, and we had a great time.

ABSOLUTELY RELAXING! Download the app to learn about the sites you pass. Nice lil charcuterie board with bread and crackers. The sparking wine and beer were nice. Great 1 1/2 hours!
