Things to do in Darling Harbour

The ferry company did a great job. Covers most of the harbour area in Sydney. This was truly a great experience.

A bright way to spend the afternoon with the amazing sea creatures. I personally liked the part where they allowed some species to be touched. It’s an indoor activity so very convenient when we did it on a hot sunny day. It was searously fun 🤩🐠🐟

So lucky that the whale was so close to the boat and they were quite active during the morning that have seen them several times during the trip. One small tip is that the ferry is aboard close to the aquarium. We almost missed the ferry as it just said the meeting point is Darling harbour and we went to the other side of the harbour. Allow some time as the crew will have a talk on the safety matters before getting on the boat.

Had a nice experience exploring Sydney with Captain Cook Cuises. Journey started from Darling Harbour - Circular Quay - Toranga Zoo - Shark Island - Watsons Bay - Manly Beach.

It was a great experience for me, seeing such a variety of animals at close range that looks well-taken care of. Getting to/from the zoo via ferry was a breeze and entry to the zoo was equally hassle-free. Highly recommended even if you're solo and just looking for a chill place to explore in Sydney.

It was quite comprehensive as an indoor zoo. Weather was raining so opted for this instead to Taronga Zoo. Had a really good time exploring the animals and learning more about them. Really convenient to walk down to Bangaroo Warf and take a ferry to Circular Quay

Our tour was very informative, and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The staff and driver were friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable about the history of Sydney. The office staff were also incredibly helpful when I called to ask for directions, making everything easy and stress-free. Overall, we had a wonderful time on the tour. Despite the very cold winter night, it was a memorable experience and one we would highly recommend.

The Sydney Tower Eye was just a short walk from our hotel, and getting to the top floor was fairly easy. It can get packed during sunset time, as tourists will be flocking to take photos against the gorgeous backdrop. We spent about an hour and a half there just admiring the views the top floor had to offer. Would recommend heading here if you want an aerial view of Sydney.

Our departure was delayed by 30 minutes, and although we were told the cruise would last until 9 PM, it actually ended between 7:30 PM and 8 PM. However, the food was absolutely delicious, and the Australian beef was incredibly tender and tasty. The scenery was initially dramatic due to a sudden thunderstorm, but surprisingly, by the time we finished eating, we were able to see a beautiful sunset. The illuminated Opera House was magnificent! The server also came to check on us and asked if we were enjoying ourselves, which made for a very memorable experience.
