Interesting ride.
The ride had expectations, then it wasn't so much. At noon, on a sunny day the cabin was not equipped, air conditioning was lacking, too hot.

A good time. Take in the sights on your terms.
There is no guide to tell you what landmarks you are seeing, we liked that. The food was excellent and there was a man playing the piano, very peaceful.
