Water Taxi Transfers for School Formal Cruises

Many Sydney schools choose to celebrate their formal night with a harbour cruise, combining a waterfront venue or wharf departure with an evening on Sydney Harbour.

  • School formal groups travelling to charter cruise departures.
  • Large groups of students travelling together.
  • Schools and formal organisers coordinating group transfers.
  • Students travelling from waterfront locations around Sydney Harbour.
  • Groups requiring a coordinated transfer to King Street Wharf.
