Interesting spots to visit but poor overall experience
fritzflopp2,Apr 30, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
2.00The stops to visit were interesting. Unfortunately there was not many information or too less information about the points to visit and no more information on the way from one to the next stop. So there could be some guidance where to go exactly and what else you pass. As well it seems that a computer generated voice tells the stories which makes the whole experience quite poor.
