Picking up the tickets was quick and hassle-free. The friendly staff also gave us some great tips. What I wasn't a fan of was that the times on the booking screen weren't completely clear. It caused some confusion for us, but it didn't ruin the experience. Please make the general information much clearer at a glance. Ticket pickup and tour times should be listed right next to each other. Therefore, one star deducted.
