It was a very convenient way to get around the city. Kids enjoyed the commentary with the headphones . Unfortunately as it rained the day we were booked. Just anyone was buying tickets on the day and as someone who had pre purchased tickets it was very frustrating waiting in the rain or missing seats on a bus because there was no priority to anyone who had pre purchased

We felt very lucky- sailed out of the Sydney heads and quickly saw a whale with calf. Followed them and saw lots of action, the boat felt safe and the sun was shining on us.

Absolutely amazing experience! The captain knew where the whales were, took us straight to them and mother and calf did not disappoint. Very attentive crew and David was great on the microphone keeping us informed on our surroundings and the whale's behavior. Totally worth it!!

The lunch was nice, views were nice. Just a little side note on the commentary - slightly sexist perhaps not mention things like "women can't..." Appreciate the crew and the effort.
