“Fantastic evening on the boat, we were on it for over 3 hours, nice and relaxing, fantastic views, food was nice but bit sweet on each course, sweet pumpkin soup, sweet potato mash then lots of cream on meringue. The VIP seats were worth paying for in my opinion, best views and comfier chairs, however we did go on top deck a lot for the views and to take pics as it was a lovely evening so do not necessarily need to pay for window seat. Not worth paying for the champagne option, there is good wine choice 30-40 euros for bottle wine. Teenagers had mocktail at 10 euros and…”
