“Definitiv ein Besuch wert. Unvergleichliche Aussicht selbst am Tag. Nachts natürlich jedoch am Besten. Teils sehr voll,da viele Leute Fotos machen und damit bestimmte Bereiche blockieren. Manche Aussichtspunkte waren abgesperrt,wegen Aktionen und dergleichen. Sitzgelegenheiten gab es,diese waren aber schnell alle besetzt. Sehr gut organisiert und selbst Stamps gibt es vor Ort. Würde jederzeit wieder dort hin.”

“Bij een food tour denk ik aan eten op meerdere plekken. Dat waren dan ook mijn verwachtingen. Wij hebben op 2 plekken gegeten. Na mijn idee is dat geen foodtour. De meneer kan heel veel leuke plekjes aanwijzen maar daar wordt niks mee gedaan. Jammer. Het eten was daarin tegen lekker vooral het eerste restaurant. Tweede plek alleen frituur.”
