We booked for 8:30pm and arrived at 8:15pm only to queue for an hour and 15 mins in the freezing cold before getting on a boat at 9:30pm. What was the point in booking a slot at 8:30pm, when it was... See more

We took a canal tour

We took a canal tour. Unfortunately we got to the boat somewhat late and the seats that were left were under an opaque covered roof (dirty clear plastic). We were in the aisle. We saw very little of the sites and could not see things are pointed out. The roof plastic was dirty and blocked any viewing. Should have been refunded.

It was crowded boat

It was crowded boat, nobody check seats availabilities. Quick ride 60-70 minutes, as for audio guide just rough facts, there could be some live stories involved. But very beautiful city and surroundings, so totally good experience

Very poor experience

Very poor experience. Bad seats, bad view. 15 minutes prior to departure was the boat already almost fully loaded. Price is too high. Never Lovers again for us.

Don’t go back worst customer service experience

The canal ride itself was lovely and the captain and another staff member who was very helpful called Mick was lovely and informative however the lady at the desk was rude towards several customers and when one of the customers left she began speaking about them in a rude manner to another female colleague. This was disgusting service and I will not be using the service again as this was completely unprofessional and extremely rude

Almost no view on back seats

The back seats are covered with opaque cloth when the weather is fine. You only have limited sight of one side or backwards. If you sit on the right side, almost nothing matches what you heard (almost everything is on the left).
