Great tour, just think that if wheather is chill you might need good jacket, gloves and hat. If hot: sun glasses… it was really nice and the guide very friendly. Would recommend anyone to do it at any time. The boat is completely open and you have an impressive view from there of the city

Jerome was excellent guide. He showed us the city on the boat. The views were amazing. We did a 2 hour tour, we stop at local restaurant to grab a snack and few drinks to enjoy our views of the city. I would recommend the tour.

A highly recommended tour, especially if you are a group 6-7 persons the boat. The tour started punctual and was fun to relax in the boat and enjoy the tour for around 2 hours.

Netter Guide, tolles kleines Boot, viel gesehen, Preis-/ Leistung ok, jederzeit wieder

Une très belle expérience et le guide très sympa et très poli. Je recommend !
