Our take
This is the tall ship on our lunch cruises page: two hours on a historic square-rigged ship, past the Opera House, the Bridge, Fort Denison, Garden Island and Taronga, with lunch cooked fresh on board by the crew and history from the captain. It sails at 1:30pm, later than the big lunch boats, and carries up to 50. It rates around 4.5.
From April to September the listing includes one free mast climb, subject to limited spots; you book it by phoning the operator. Drinks are not in the fare, but an unlimited beer, wine and soft drink package can be added at booking. Two things to weigh before you pay: it is non-refundable, and the tall ship is not wheelchair accessible. On some weekdays from April to September it runs on a different ship, the Coral Trekker, so check which one your voucher names. The crew meet you between the Park Hyatt and the Overseas Passenger Terminal at least 30 minutes before sailing.
Good for
- A lunch where the boat is part of the outing
- Families with kids keen to climb the mast in winter
Think twice if
- Your dates might change. It cannot be refunded
- You need step-free access
