I expected much more from this experience, I sat in the back ( which I arrived last) and it was not easy to follow the 'audio guide and see what was being told at the same time. Also, the 'sudioguide could be heard intermittently , basically expectations were much higher than reality.

Despite the bad weather, the ride was ok, at least window wipers were distributed. The price is somewhat excessive for this service.

The audioguide included interesting informstions (although I personally prefer a live tour guide). What I did not like, was the boat itself, as in the back, there was limited view because of the roof and the walls; unfortunately I could not see the buildings properly.

The whole tour was amazing. Good audio announcements which were very informative and exciting. Too bad the tour is only 1 hour. We would love to come back. We can highly recommend the tour in the evening.
