Notes

  • Check in: We recommend arriving 15 minutes before departure to ensure a smooth check-in process. Unfortunately, late arrivals may result in missed departures, and we are unable to provide refunds in these cases.

    Meeting Point:Viaduct Harbour Marina - Our crew will meet you at the departure point diagonally across from the Maritime Museum entrance near the Explore ticket kiosk.
