I enjoyed this tour it was great. My tour guide was very knowledgeable, I forgot his name but everything was great. I just need to invest in a portable charger, I was so use to the buses having outlets that I felt no need to get one until my trip. We went by van because it wasn't a lot of us and the van was nice, comfortable and very clean but other than not being able to charge my phone, the trip was fabulous.

The guides Carlo and Carlton were great ! Long ride wish the bus would’ve had a bathroom but they made a few stops. Didn’t see the ship as pictured.
