Travelling from Circular Quay to one of Sydney's most popular beachside suburbs, Manly, the Manly Ferry is a 30-minute cruise across Sydney's iconic harbour past cherished landmarks like the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House.

It's light but informative, turning the ferry journey into a collection of stories that will become your own.
