    Mohammad_A
    , Jul 2022
    Good food. Good trip in general but it felt overpriced and 1. The trip says 3 hours but was less than 2.5 hours. More like 2 hours and 15 minutes. 2. I was sit away from the window and was told I needed to pay more than the $125 for a window seat. This was not suggested on the website when I booked 3. They included a 22% tip as they charged me for the drink. The bill I got did not say that but my bank notification said so. I thought it was a thing I wanted to do in a while. It was fun but it is expensive and those are my issues with it
