“QE code for bus shuttle to airport was ‘expired’. I had to pay to get on the bus, which was a letdown of expectation. Princes island ferry tour with lunch could had carried on but was canceled the day before. This was despite forecast of weather to be good on Sunday. It’s hard not to feel cheated and played out. The use of the pass was not easy either.”

“Bospherous Dinner Cruise was nice & the views were beautiful but the food left a lot to be desired. If one picks a mixed grill & it is meat balls & chicken, it should be quality meat used, such as grass fed beef & grilled chicken breast. I also feel there should be a little more variety & at least 1 drink should be included! We had a nice time, but found everything a little expensive…drinks, pictures etc. At least the show was entertaining. If you want tourist to be happy & to return, you shouldn’t look to overcharge them. Price fairly, like you do to those who live here…”
