    Heineken was great, boat trip was great but what 4 star Is that ticket dosen’t tell that it works on boat only time 10-18. And you should reserve your boat trip separetly because If you dont, there is a big change that boat is allready fully booked and you will stay on dock crying

    The Heineken was so much fun. It was quick, easy and they give you lots of photo opportunities. Our cruise was iffy - the captain was grumpy and actually drove our boat into a wall and then asked for tips at the end… wouldn’t go through the cruise line again
