Nice to have seen and well worth the money. 50 min enjoy this show. Various themes are played and the technique is looked at in amazement.

Had a 5.15pm booking which got changed to 4pm with little warning when we were on other activities, tried to get there on time but missed 1/3 of the show. No compensation or alternative offered by either Viator or the operator, very bad customer service

Horrible experience! They let people late halfway thru. Audience was rude, held phones up with no regard for people behind them. Performance was nice; kid oriented and historical. But management needs to do better keeping the audience orderly.
