Very good boat trip at a very reasonable price. The process of booking online was very easy and the details given for finding the boarding location were excellent, even provided a photo of the office/location. The boat was impressive and for the price the overall experience cannot be faulted.

Ticketing experience was good. I bought the ticket online, used PayPal to pay for it. One thing that could be done better: send the ticket as pdf to the customer. I had no internet on my phone, so any ticket links don't work when you click on them. Would be good to think of offline customers as well :). Ship wasn't crowded, that was nice and left enough space for wandering around and taking pictures.

Our original tour was cancelled without notice. After contacting customer support we managed to reschedule for the following day. The app for the audio worked ok, the location mode did not work but was able to manually play each section. The cruise itself was pleasant.

We couldn't do the booked trip but we got a substitutional tour. The guide was really nice and answered a lot of questions. The tour was informative and interesting but also really relaxing.
