Good but loud! - The boat was great! The lights were beautiful. The reason for 4 rather than 5 stars. There were 2 famlies on this ride with w small children who screamed and cried so we could not hear the narration at all. Also, the dock is a little far away from downtown, a 20€ Uber ride in each direction.

Meh - The light show was not that fascinating, many of the light dispalys were so silly especially the waving hand! I think it is very outdated. The boat was clean and nice but the fact that there are no hot drinks ( tea or coffee ) its either beer, water or sugary drinks, on a boat trip that is running for almost 2 hrs during winter time that is strange. I think the trip could have incorporated other factors related to the city history that would have made it a little worth our while. Simple tea or coffee for people who are not interested in getting drunk or high on sugar would be a plus.
