    It wasn’t a bad trip but I thought it would be more exciting. Maybe my expectations were too high? Still enjoyed it overall. Ticketsandroutes has good guides!

    I was kinda disappointed with the length of the trip. We barely got to see the tall ships for a few mins. I think I was expecting more. Overall ok but not super great.

    Great seeing the tall ships, but man, the food on the boat was a letdown. I expected better for the price. Hope they improve that next year.
