Fascinating guided tour - The guide was very knowledgeable kind and respectful. The guide is very articulate and could describe the eras, people and atmosphere very vividly. It was fascinating. My only criticism is not about the guide but the facility on the boat are very poor.

Great tour, Interesting tour guide - This tour was a lot of fun with some incredible information. However, there are some problems on it. Our tour guides name was Percy and while we loved them they did dress quite sloppily which we found a bit weird. But overall I would recommend.

Ugh, waste of time and money - By far the worst VIP tour we have been on and the most expensive. 1st IPad was shattered so evert time the tour guide attempted to show us pictures it was near impossible due to the shattered screen. We were unable to understand the guide as their voice was so raspy that it was hard to understand. Guide was dressed very poorly and unprofessional fuzzy sandals, seriously? All in all very unpleasant experience and I would not recommend.
