“Not the 5 star service we were promised”

Reviewed May 4, 2013

To be fair it was an enjoyable trip despite the semi constant rain showers, and the food was good and drinks plentiful. The commentary was a bit too much about the person giving it and not enough about Sydney, so OK but not great.

“Outstanding day on the bay in Sydney”

Reviewed April 12, 2013

Wonderful vistas; small number of people; outstanding service from friendly, knowledgable and inviting staff; excellent compliment of food and beverages included in the cost of the tour. A great way to see the area surrounding Sydney from the water. Four hours that were very worthwhile.

Hello traveller from New York. Thank you very much for taking the time to review your experience with Sea Sydney Cruises. Sounds like you had a wonderful day and this trip was a highlight of your time in Sydney. As you would have seen, Sydey Harbour is enormous and our cruises really try to cover as much ground or water... More

“GREAT day and great way to see Sydney Harbor”

Reviewed February 15, 2013

As has been said, this is more of a day on a friend's boat then a tour. The Calypso pulled up to greet us and another couple. We were introduced to our host (and owner), Sean and skipper, Rocky, who both ensured that we were comfortable. We were offered water, soda, wine and beer (inclusive) as we headed out. The... More

“Five star all the way!”

Reviewed February 13, 2013

Our travel professional arranged this tour. Well it's not really a tour but an afternoon on a "friend's boat". What an enjoyable afternoon. The weather was perfect. The food and refreshments great and we enjoyed the company. Sydney Harbour is a destination all on it's own. If you have the opportunity to take advantage of this experience, do it....

“Relaxing Afternoon On Sydney Harbour”

Reviewed January 18, 2013

My wife and I took the "Cuise Like A Local" tour with Sea Sydney Cruises back on November 25, 2013. If you want to escape the tourists traps, and want a private, relaxing tour with no more than 12 people on the yacht, then this is the tour to go on. It really doesn't even seem right calling it a...

HI MightyWa Glad to hear you had an excellent time on board the Calyspo. Sounds like you are a local and really pleased you got to experience this magnificent tour. Small group cruising is the way to go because it truly allows crew and guests to interact and for us to show the best spots on the harbour and then... More

“Fabulous harbor cruise”

Reviewed January 17, 2013

We spent a beautiful afternoon on a 52 ft. yacht with just 14 other passengers. The view of the city from the harbour is incredible. The crew-Polly and Alex were wonderful and had a wealth of information. The lunch on board the yacht was delicious. I would recommend this company for the quality of the yacht, the service and overall... More

“The Best Way To Experience Sydney”

Reviewed December 27, 2012

I am not a fan of touristy things and crowds but Sea Sydney Cruises is a completely different "tourist" experience. The yacht only caters to 12 passengers for the Cruise Like A Local cruise. On the cruise that my husband and I went on, the captain and tour guide were very friendly and knowledgeable and took our group completely around... More
