"We had a wonderful experience! Beautiful weather, amazing views... it's great to self-drive and enjoy the scenery. Boat drives pretty slowly, but it makes it relaxing. We took an 8-seater - just for two of us - and enjoyed the on-board built-in Bluetooth music system after connecting our phone. Lots of fun! - C.R"
