Great experience. Nice ride with the boat and we even saw 2 dolphins - they made everything they could do make this possible without interference with nature! During the trips lot of information about history was shared.

Staff were great, I think more time could be spent around the old ships. Dolphin spotting was great fun.

We didn't see any dolphins although it is a good way to spend the morning. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Tour guides were great, very informative and helpful but... Don't expect beautiful river views, it's an industrial area, interesting but not scenic.

It was cool to see the ship yard. Did not see dolphins which was disappointing as it is stated in the title.
