Kingsley was a great tour guide. I love that he reached out well in advance of the tour to confirm our meeting point, and then was available via text when my directionally challenged self had trouble locating the spot. He was knowledgeable, good-humored, and kind to everyone in our group.

Did this tour with my girlfriend. The boat was the best part, but we felt a bit rushed at the Illumination Tower. Guide was nice, would recommend.

We had a good time overall. The tour covers all the main sights and the guide was fun. Only issue was waiting for the boat—it was late by like 20 mins. Still, the night lights made up for it. Dress for the weather!
