Great cruise and visit. Please precise info about backpacks because I have not taken one with me myself and other visitors had ones. This is only one remark.

Visiting the cells and hearing stories. My granddaughter was fascinated with the escape story. Getting to look into the inside of the cells gives a feel for what prisoners went through.
