Lovely gentle cruise to a most wonderful location. The history and dramatic position is well worth the visit. One tip however would be that when you are heading for the port you should turn left opposte the gallery and walk to find the booking office which is a large rectangular building covered in abdertisemmenta/ posters. We were leaving from pier 15 which is a relatively lengthy walk so I would definitely be there at least 30 mins early to ensure you have lots of time to check which pier you're boarding from and allow adequate time to walk there. Enjoy.!
