Captain Cook Cruises Sydney has been named one of five winners in the Klook Pandemic Pivot Awards 2021 selected from hundreds of travel operators across Australia. The award celebrates travel operators that have adapted to the uncertainty and unpredictable nature of the past 12 months.
Captain Cook Cruises received the award from Klook for the development of the Harbour Bar, Sydney’s first hop-on, hop-off floating bar for Sydneysiders.
“Working with Klook has been an absolute pleasure. They were one of the first OTA’s to support our new Harbour Bar & Restaurant range and the response from their clients was fantastic.” said Richard Doyle, General Manager Global Sales for SeaLink, the parent company of Captain Cook Cruises Sydney.
“Being recognised with this award highlights both the ability of the Travel Industry to adapt and the vital role building strong relationships with distribution partners continues to play.” Continued Mr Doyle.
The Harbour Bar & Restaurant will re-open to the public from 22 October 2021 with bookings available now. For further information and bookings, please contact Captain Cook Cruises on T: +61-2-9206 1111 or visit captaincook.com.au

· Sydney Harbour Kayaks, for introducing a night time sea kayak experience for the Sydney Solstice Festival, exploring areas of the water not previously visited by kayak tours. It was the first time kayakers could explore Darling Harbour.
