Superb service! Initially took a minute to find the desk but then all went well, waited 20 mins for the boat and then headed out, great cost effective way to say over 50% on a private transfer but with the same feel. Highly recommend!

Overall great service. Everything went smoothly and communication was good. We booked the day before so we were a little concerned as the website talks about getting a message 24 hours before departure time and we were within that 24 hours already. However, however, everything was fine we got the message the morning of departure and everything worked smoothly

    Im Boot waren 15 Personen, davon 9 massiv fettleibige Passagiere. Wir mussten die Fahrt völlig zusammengequetscht erdulden. Kein schönes Erlebnis, auch wenn wir zeitig am Ziel ankamen. Das Team hat gut gearbeitet.
