Pleased - Beautiful village with lovely little shops. The tour guide gave us some great little insights to the village. We took a a boat ride back which was ok. It was very hot (35 degrees) the day we took this tour so all that walking around in the heat was painful be better on cooler months.

Not as expected - A little town with a lot of tourism and stores, but nothing more. The return was by bote which was better. The guide was OK. I think there is other tours more worth it.

Are you sure you want to go? - A day time trip there was very average. Besides a lot of the shops selling local touristy wares, a marzipan outlet and a (reasonably) nice enough church, there is not much to warrant the trip. Even food options were very limited. Maybe in the evening once the lights come on and the hanging umbrellas light up it could be better.

Not worth the price - Really you're paying for the bus ride there. The boat back required no ticket. Very little information provided on the bus ride over. Our tour guide did not seem comfortable and was low energy. The village itself is worth going to, lots of cute shops and great food!
