Absolutely amazing. Nice ride, got a big rough around manly but that’s due to the change in weather and tides. Overall was a good experience and great value for money.

We purchased a two day ticket and it worked really well for us. There are two elements to this, one is just getting you around and the second is the ‘thrill’ of going around the harbour at fairly high speed. Can sit inside or outside. There is a published timetable and the boats are punctual. If you are thinking of going to the zoo this can be added into the ticket.

I loved the flexibility of the schedule as well as being able to take your time at whichever stop you want to go on. It helps you to plan out your day or days if you’re doing 2 days. Love this activity and would highly recommend!!
