Spectacular Sights and Senses! - Over the top experience with Zane!
Knowledgeable, informative, kindly answering questions while pointing out the beauty of Sydney Harbor sights. Gracious host at impressive CYCA lunch with cocktails, including tour of facility. Zane gave an interesting ride aboard the Spectre with a stop to view boys jumping from cliffs, flag down the ice cream boat manned by quite the character and most importantly was all about safety. We highly recommend his talents!

The Masters of Sydney Harbor - A Great Way to Spend an Afternoon! - My family and I took a harbor cruise with Sydney Harbor Boat Tours yesterday. Our cruise left and returned us to the Harbour Masters Steps by the Contemporary Art Museum. Our party of 6 departed at about 12:15 and returned around 4:15. The boat, named the Spectre 2, was perfect with more than ample seating. Captain Keith expertly took us on a tour of the various coves and inlets of Sydney Harbor with a stop for lunch in a quiet area where we were able to swim. The lunch, which was included with our cruise, consisted of an assorted seafood platter and a charcuterie platter, along with various salads and desserts - as good as any restaurant. The boat was stocked with both sift drinks and beer and wine, all also included. Keith was also very knowledgeable regarding the history, etc. of the area and was very attentive and accommodating to one of our party who has some mobility issues.
I definitely recommend some type of a harbor tour while in Sydney and wouldn’t book with anyone else. They are a pleasure to deal with.
Kudos to Mark, Captain Keith, Peta, and the rest of the team for a first class day all around!!

Magic day on the harbour - I had low expectations and was blown away. The boat was small but stable and there wasn’t a dull moment. 4 hours flew by. Lunch was stunning and the CYAC club was full of history. Just magic. As a kiwi we loved it. Worth doing.

Magnificent & Memorable!!! - We are well traveled, and I will say that this is amongst the best guided tours I’ve taken in 40 years. Unlike many water tours, this was very personal. Small group, smaller boat than usual, and a very engaging, knowledgeable Skipper. Zane was personable, gave context and information about this incredible body of water. We enjoyed a First Class, quality Lunch at one of the Many Yacht Clubs scattered about the harbor. It was a pleasant afternoon of learning, great conversation and a great many laughs. Highly recommended

Perfection - This was an absolutely perfect trip. We saw all the sights in the Harbour, all the way to the entry to the Pacific. The descriptions provided gave great insight to all the places and landmarks along the way. Lunch and the informal tour at the Yacht Club added to the enjoyment. Great way to spend a hit, sunny day!
