The minimum age is 10 years, with child rates applying to travellers aged 10–15. Everyone receives a safety briefing and lifejacket, and flat-soled shoes plus a light jacket are recommended. Families travelling with younger children could consider the gentler Auckland Harbour Sailing Cruise, which welcomes younger passengers.
