Great river cruise with explanation behind historical context - Fantastic experience especially when you go with your partner. Snacks are provided and plenty of spaces and privacy to enjoy the sights and taking pictures. Explanation was given behind most of the historical landmarks and a map was provided show the route being taken. Would recommend!
