“Wonderful experience. It’s $15 extra per person if you want a window seat, a photographer comes around and you can get a photo package with print outs for $25 and up. The kids menu is $50 euros, my baby only ate the bread so I don’t recommend it if you have picky eaters. Drinks aren’t included. There was a wonderful singer who walked around and serenaded each table, she sang in several languages. Beautiful views but there is no upper stairs lounge”
