    Very good experience, to see nice landmarks along the Danube Canal. Staff are friendly, we opted for 2 course lunch, and food is great. I also bought audio guide, however, it's actually free.

    Booked tickets online. The digital ticket had to be exchanged for a paper ticket. Technology of the last century. The view of the sights was very limited. Can't be helped, but if I had known beforehand, I wouldn't have spent €96 on it. The drinks I ordered only arrived at half time. Quite nice, but I wouldn't do it again and wouldn't recommend it.
