We did our river cruise at the end of our trip and it was so fun to "revisit" all the places we had gotten to know through our vacation. We had a great time and the boat was very comfortable.

Добре. Але була дуже велика черга і повільно просувалися. Заклад де треба було забрати солодке то там було найсмачніше морозиво. Рекомендую там купляти морозиво.

I liked everything, everything is just like the description says. And the lady who runs the cafeteria where they sold the macarons was really nice and helped us a lot. It was a really great experience. I'd recommend checking the weather, because the day I went for a walk, it rained a lot and was cloudy.
