That would be really great when it would be stated in big letters in the beginning of the attraction description that the booking is not valid alone and that a ticket for this booking NEEDS to be fetched at the ticket office. Because I was not aware of that, I lost my time and was one of the last to board. As a result, I didn't get a nice spot on the boat for the sight seeing that I wanted. I'd really, appreciate if you take measures to adjust the description. I was not the only one affected by this confusion. Thank you. Best regards, Olesia

Trip was okay. A bit uninspiring trip up the river, but the boat was cozy and staff was nice.
