Great - It was great. We sat at the top & we had a free drink. Good value for money but the audio guide didn’t come on for 20 mins

Average boat trip - Quite a reasonable price - however the previous trip was late coming in, so had longer times waiting in the cold, followed by a crush of people trying to push their way on at the same time. We managed to secure a space on the top deck, and there were blankets available to keep warm. Some good background music. The audio description was a little confusing, as it did multiple languages one after another. So was difficult at times to know which landmark / attraction it was referring to. Quite pleasant but overall not seeing a lot of sights. There were toilets and a bar on the boat available too.

Cruise cancelled but no refund - I had a cruise booked, on the day I was advised by WhatsApp that it was ‘postponed’; we couldn’t make the earlier time and replied to the WhatsApp to say that we couldn’t make it. When I asked for a refund it was declined because we did not cancel!

A very bad experience.... - A very bad experience. The ship hasn't been able to set sail. And they won't answer us to pay us back. We've had an hour and a half inside the boat without being able to get off and without making the route. Within an hour and a half we were told to get off that they couldn't set sail. That they felt the inconvenience

Unorganised disappointment - Group of 4 joined the 6pm evening river tour on 13/12/25. Purchased via Get My Guide, ticket included a drink each. We were delayed leaving, very disorganised, only option was for us all to sit separately. We needed to queue to get our drink for at least 15 minutes during which we missed everything we passed & couldn’t hear the commentary. Many people also paid for their drink as crew did not ask customers what ticket they had purchased. We have no idea what ‘landmarks’ we passed & saw as the commentary didn’t seem to match up to the rows of hotels & apartments we sailed past! Complete waste of over an hour & definitely not worth the money.

We had to have a refund.... - We had to have a refund. There was no captain to sail the boat and we were unable to wait due to other events planned. There was no communication. We pretty much had to find out ourselves. And this was after we had been on the boat for an hour. Would not recommend

Boat didn’t leave - Awful experience. No sailor, boat didn’t even leave harbour. We got off, as many others did, as we had dinner reservations

Terrible evening cruise - Friday 5th December 18:00 river cruise. Big line of people waiting for the boat. Boat came alongside 18:15. We went onboard and sat on the upper deck. We then sat for over an hour waiting to depart and it was freezing. The 19:00hrs cruise passengers came onboard also even though the boat was full. People had to stand on the upper deck as there was no seats available. All exits were blocked. No safety message from the crew was given. (This is a requirement under ISM Code) even on a river! Boat finally left at 19:20 and no excuse was given to passengers on the upper deck. As for the cruise it was as exciting as watching ice cream melt!!! Save your money and avoid!
