Would of been 5 stars
Excellent guide who was so informative, loved meeting other people on this cruise too. I checked the weather so knew it was going to rain, but saw the photo of the boat which was covered so thought the rain wont be a problem and took a couple of light jackets as well. The rain seeped through the roof and we all ended up drenched and cold, that was the biggest dissapointment. I would totally reccommend this cruise but check the weather and only book if the weather is good or if you dont mind being wet and cold for 3 hours.The food was bbq and green salad and a beautiful fruit salad, although it wasnt huge it was a nice light snack, dont expect to get full on it. I would totally take the rest of my family on this cruise but only when the weather is good.
