Fabulous! Could have spent all day on the boat! - Thoroughly enjoyed our trip. It was very calming especially with electric boat quietly floating around the waterways. A fabulous way to see the city and learn the history.

Recommended! - The tour was really well run. It was easy to find the departure location and the staff were friendly and helpful. The boat has a retractable cover which was great as there was some light rain. The tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly and fun, and he really brought to city to life. Facilities were great and we felt the tour was excellent value for money.

Beautiful tour with multiple seating options - Amazing tour! Great pickup and drop off location. Loved that we could choose seats outside at the aft of the boat, inside the boat with seats covered by a roof, or inside the boat with the roof open above the seats. Excellent staff and service!

Ok but not special - The route is great (areas we hadn’t seen) and nice to be able to order a drink on board but audio guide was poor and repeated in multiple languages which took ages. Wished we had done one with an English tour guide on board. Kids ended up playing cards. It was quite a bit cheaper than some of the others that seemed to be more focused on the bar.

Poor view from the boat - Disappointing. There was very little room on deck, so we had to stay indoors even though the weather was magnificent. The tinted windows, most of which were closed, made it difficult to see clearly. And the description was spoken over loudspeakers in 5 languages in succession, which was a bit tiresome.
