Great experience with live jazz, can buy the tickets directly in the lighthouse and staff are fantastic. On board refreshments are available to buy and very reasonably priced

Tour information only highlighted departure time not a recommended arrival in the boarding area. Boat is both too big & not big enough. First we couldn't find a seat outside then we could find seats but only in the hot sun. The Pa system was terrible - couldn't heat 85% of the commentary. Oh yea there's not even much attractive to see from the boat! Really wished we'd taken precious sightseeing time to do something else.

It is expensive and not worth it! Our trip includes live jazz and lunch! The tour was very crowded and we struggled to find place to sit. Very little guide and the jazz was on the top deck and only started in the second half of the tour. The lunch was very late - we had to chase twice and we waited for good 30 minutes when we can see the buffet to be ready there. Worst service and definitely definitely not worth the amount we paid!! I have been on transfer ferries with more guide and better service!! Pls do not waste your money!!!
