SoloVerified bookingLast week4/5Good value for money and I enjoyed the route they do. However, I could not hear clearly the announcements they were making to guide us as to what we were seeing and there were some under aged passengers that were really making noise and screaming which made the trip a bit unpleasant and none of the crew members interfered.RRenate C
