I purchased tickets to the Twilight Dinner Cruise as a belated birthday outing for my daughter who turned 21 during lockdown. We were so lucky to have beautiful weather for our cruise. The boat is beautiful and has such history attached to it. The food was really good. My daughter has coeliac disease and this was easily catered for.
My daughter and her younger brother (aged 13) both climbed the mast. Julia (crew member) gave them a thorough safety briefing and assisted them to harness up. My son goes to the local rock climbing centre regularly so he loved this. My daughter got stuck half way and

We really enjoyed our tall ship experience around Sydney harbour. I take a ferry nearly every day, but it was still amazing to slowly move around the harbour on a great big ship.
The staff were really friendly and very knowledgeable, and the mast climbing experience looked like a lot of fun.
The food was a quite tasty buffet, but be warned it's not fine dinning, you'll be enjoying your meal off a paper plate on your lap.
Finally, make sure to bring your camera, you'll get some amazing photos of the ship, the Opera House and the harbour bridge.
Great experience!

Had a great afternoon trip on the Søren Larsen. Surely one of the best ways to experience Sydney Harbour. The crew was fantastically inviting and Howard the guide had a reservoir of knowledge about all aspects of the Harbour. The Captain was great and highly skilled, the boat doesn't rock much as it is 200 tonne and very safe, so you needn't worry about the water if your inexperienced. The food and drink served aboard was also great.We even climbed the mast which was really exciting, with a harness of course so very safe.
Cannot recommend highly enough as a Sydney harbour experience.
I will

This was hands down one if the most fun things I have done with my child. My little one was thrilled to be able to help raise a sail and to pilot the ship by taking a turn at the wheel. The crew could not have been more welcoming or gracious. I totally recommend this as one of the more affordable and fun ways of doing something interesting with your kids.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality
I had a great day out with these guys. I did the Goat Island tour. The guide was excellent and very engaging. They served a nice snack as we arrived and then a good lunch later in the day. The staff on the boat are nice and the experience is very professional. I loved it.

We went as a family on the Soren Larsen and were treated to excellent weather. The crew were very friendly, bring around plenty of food and answering every question we asked. The climb to the crows nest gave even better views of the harbour than down on the deck and was well worth it. Cant think of anything negative about this experience, well worth the money for one of the last original tall ships in Australia.

We did the sunset cruise on the harbour. Headed from Campbell's cove out past Shark island. It was a perfect Sunday afternoon, I climbed up the mast and got a great view of a stunning sunset behind the bridge. Turned around and came back to the quay under sail.
We got dinner as part of the package, washed it down with a few reasonably priced beers.
We loved it. The crew was friendly and helpful and we would recommend it to anyone

Fantastic day out on Sydney harbour. The crew where chilled and the ship sailed well. The captain motored the vessel all the way up to shark island and the shut down the engines to let the wind sail us back to the harbour bridge. A 2 hour water trip with a nice lunch prepared by the crew. Drinks were extremely well priced so we had quite a few. I would gladly promote this little getaway to my friends. It was my wife's birthday and she enjoyed herself completely. A family of 4 was under $300. The bridge walk costs 370 for 1 person and no lunch or drink... well done guys. Thank you again
