Boat tide not exactly what we hoped for

We were hoping for more commentary. Not just sitting and looking at buildings and boats. There was a guide but it was difficult to hear him and he really did not give much information

We understand that clear and informative commentary is an important part of the experience, and we regret that it was difficult to hear the guide and that you felt there was not enough information.

Relaxing boat ride

If it was advertised as a boat ride, I’d say it was a decent experience. The route was pretty simple and the guide added very little to the experience. For 33 euros I’d say it’s a bit overpriced for what I experienced, but it was alright. Although it was a sunny day so several of us up top almost fell asleep. I wouldn’t describe the tour as exciting, but perhaps overly relaxing boat ride.

Operator response

Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear you enjoyed the sunny and relaxing boat ride and were able to take in the scenery during your trip. At the same time, we are sorry that the tour felt a bit too simple and that the commentary did not add enough to your experience. Your comments are appreciated and will be shared with our team as we continue working on improving the guest experience. Kind regards

Archipelago boat trip

With nearly half of the participants speaking German, and not predominantly younger individuals, who generally have better English skills, one could envision an improvement in this regard for these guests. I would do it again directly :)

Nice but...

A bit expensive and ultimately we do not tour the archipelago. So, apart from a few explanations (in English only), it wasn't that different from the navigation to Valxhom. We could have skipped it 🤷🏼‍♀️
