Pay the extra to sit up front. The unobstructed views was worth it. But if all the seats don’t get sold they let the other the guests that didn’t pay the extra money fill in so a little frustrating that they got the same thing for no extra money. We did enjoy the ride. The crew was very pleasant and the fun facts on the way back made the trip interesting too. Glad we did it.

My reservation was cancelled and I wasnt even notified. We bought an uber there and back. I need to be reimbursed for the tickets and the uber rides from my hotel. I also tried calling to support number so many times. No one picks up.
