    Operator didn’t have the means to scan the QR code, didn’t recognise Viator either but were very polite whilst they sorted it. Pleasant trip with interesting information via a hand held audio device. More information on the numbers on the device relating to a map would have been helpful - we weren’t given a map. I used our rewards, if I’d paid may have felt it wasn’t worth the £11 each.

    A nice short trip up and down the river. The staff were very helpful and looked after our buggy while we were on the trip.
