3 months agoThe steam boat 1 + half hour tour was well worth doing. It's good to see the accommodation along the river bank. Lots of motor boats and jetskis along the way. It's holiday time Now in January. In February it's to hot to visit.

6 months agoNice. Fascinating history and information. Really helpful staff and nice gift shop. They have cool interactive displays and good toilets, very important whilst travelling 😁. Would reccomend. You can also go outside and look at old machinery and see the paddle steamers in steam moving around taking people on trips. Overall a really nice place.
