Excellent evening. Boat was very smart with cushioned seats and tables for two or four people. Boat was limited in number so everyone had a good view of the lit up sights. Musicians played a variety of music and went around the boat taking requests. A free glass of Prosecco was haded out on arrival. Bar available for further drinks.

The tour was amazing and the guide was absolutely fantastic. It was one of the best experiences I have ever done. The guide really educated us and showed us some beautiful places and his knowledge was outstanding. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Amazing guide! Great experience made sure I was happy before we set off. Lots of historical information. Always happy to take photos throughout trip. Helped showing me pieces I could do after and throughout the rest of my trip.
