    “Expensive and hot, but kind of neat.” It was pricey for what you get. The band was fun. It was very hot and the train left almost an hour late. Jarrett, 28 set 2026

    “Animação. ” Foi bonito, pessoal simpático, paisagens unicas mas penso que poderia ser feito mais alguma coisa para nos sentirmos num verdadeiro cenário antigo. De qualquer forma recomendo vivamente. A corrigir os lugares ou seja, os passageiros do lado direito deveriam trocar com os do lado esquerdo em Tua para lhes proporcionar as mesmas vistas. joao, 05 set 2026
