Die Grachtenfahrt ist sehr empfehlenswert, man bekommt ein guten Eindruck von der schönen Stadt und den Parks. Unser Kapitän hat zusätzlich zu den Erklärungen über den Kopfhörer noch einiges Interessantes von der Stadt erzählt. Die Sitzbänke für 2 Personen sind etwas eng. Aber für eine Stunde geht es.
