Schön wäre es, wenn man sich Getränke auch zwischendurch am Tresen holen könnte. das würde auch die Kellner:innen entlasten.
Das Essen sollte man nur als Beigabe betrachten.
Vielen Dank für 5 Sterne!! Liebe Grüße N. Klein
SENSATIONELL!!! Sowas habe ich noch nicht gesehen. Fazit. Es waren ein paar schöne Momente dabei aber Insgesamt den Preis (Tickets und Getränke an Bord) nicht wert.
Sorry aber so wars leider.
