I personally enjoyed looking upclose the container cranes, how we're just a few feet we were from the bow of the ship and so much more. But most of all our tour guide, Kiel (excuse my spelling if wrong) was excellent!! Though he spoke in German, he spoke with us in English!! Well done!! He' s very accommodating and with good rapport too before the tour started! Thank you. Made my husband happy.”
