8.5 We liked : 1. Well organised trip with absolute no stress during Travel. 2. Time to Time pickup and drop, additionally drivers were pretty good and of welcoming nature. 3. Food and service were really tasty in both the Hotels. 4. All pre-visit information and requested modifications were delivered amazingly. Improvement : 1. hotel room details (backside room, no good view from window, and missing gallery) 2. Swimming pool not present in IBIS hotel. (Same missing view/gallery) 3. Better cruise experience expected, food was bland and no open-upper deck. (We saw a few cruises there with an open upper deck) Improvements are just suggestions and not complaints.
