Kann man mal machen

Kurzweilig, gute Infos. Lautsprecher schlechte Qualität, man hat lang nicht alles verstanden; vor allem nicht, wenn plappernde Leute hinter einem saßen. Ansonsten senr nettes Team!

Wie erwartet gut :)

Ich hatte gleich 2 Fahrten gebucht und beide waren in Ordnung. Die eine fuhr in die Innenstadt, die andere zur Brücke, die man wirklich gesehen haben muss. Für den Preis etwas zu wenig Komfort und wenig zu sehen aber wenn die Stadt nicht mehr zu bieten hat, können die Fähren auch nichts dafür. Im Großen und Ganzen OK.

Gute Überblick über die Stadt vom Wasser

Recht interessante Tour. Zum Rabattpreis zu empfehlen. Als Vollzahler würde ich nur die 1Std. Richtung Hafen machen...passt soweit...

Schöne Rundfahrt

Bei der großen Rundfahrt in die Docks und den Yarra River hinauf bekommt man eine schöne Sicht auf die Hafenregion. Im Internet findet man oftmals Tickets mit 50% Rabatt, so dass dann auch das Priis-Leistungs-Verhältnis der Rundfahrt stimmt:)

Very informative and enjoyable couple of hours.

Very hard to fault this cruise in any reasonable way.
