Sydney Harbour Explorer: 2-Day Hop-On Hop-Off
Glide across Sydney Harbour and explore the city from a whole new perspective! With your pass, you'll have two-day access!
What you'll do
There’s no better way to experience the views of Sydney Harbour than by jumping aboard a Captain Cook Cruises ferry. With a two-day hop-on, hop-off pass, you’ll have the ultimate freedom to explore at your own pace, uncovering the famous landmarks and the hidden gems that make Sydney so special.
Your adventure begins at Circular Quay, the city’s vibrant waterfront hub, where you can step onto a modern, comfortable vessel and set sail. From here, you’ll glide past world-famous landmarks like the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge, snapping postcard-worthy photos from the best vantage point possible - the water!
But this isn’t just about sightseeing. With your two-day pass, you’ll have the flexibility to hop on and off at multiple stops around the harbour. From pristine beaches to scenic walking trails and bustling dining precincts.
Feeling adventurous? Step off at Taronga Zoo and tackle the headland walk for jaw-dropping harbour views, or hop off at Watsons Bay and take the coastal trail to Hornby Lighthouse, a favourite among locals. Looking for a slice of serenity? Pack a picnic and relax on Shark Island (Boowambillee), , a picturesque national park in the middle of the harbour.
Best of all, Captain Cook Cruises makes exploring easy. The simple ferry timetable ensures you can plan your day effortlessly, and onboard crew members are always happy to offer tips and insights. Plus, expert-guided commentary—available in multiple languages via a user-friendly app - brings Sydney’s rich history and vibrant culture to life as you cruise.
