The tour was good. The guide is very knowledgeable. The only thing I want to complain about is that the meeting point was not in the right place nor was it a red tram. I had to find the office inside the aquarium and confirm it inside. Fortunately the tram driver helped me find it.

Excellent! Your employees are very helpful and cordial.
