LCC good value for what it offers

I would recommend the city card because it offers a lot for a great value, it would have been much more expensive to visit every museum or use the public transport without it.

Good view from boat and interesting commentary

Mixed weather so most passengers sat inside but views very good from large windows. Commentary in French then English although the English was clearly briefer.

The cruise was a supposed to be in both English and French, but there were lots of parts delivered in French that were not translated. Also the host spoke to some of the guests in French making lots of conversations and comments we could not understanding. The bar was not always manned and I nearly got locked in the toilet as the lock was faulty and difficult to open and close.

The views were amazing but it was not as interesting as I had hoped and went of for too long. Does not need to be an hour.
