“Firstly I would like to say how wonderful the hosts were on the cruise. The issues we had were due to location of the pick up and drop off point. We arrived early to be faced with a park with no signs and in complete darkness, we spotted a bar and went for a drink and then returned to the pick up point. At this time the boat could be seen by the river bank, but the walk down to it was very dark with unlevel steps. At the end of the cruise we had the same issues with the darkness and now no idea where to get a taxi…”

“Samen met mijn vriendin ben ik uit eten geweest bij Dinner in the Dark, een ervaring waar we vooraf best hoge verwachtingen van hadden. Het ontvangst begon echter al teleurstellend. In de bar was alles zeer minimaal en rommelig. Daarnaast was vooraf niet gecommuniceerd dat we begeleid zouden worden door slechtziende of blinde mensen. Op zich is dat geen probleem, maar het is wel iets wat je van tevoren wilt weten bij een zogenoemde “experience”.

Dat bleek geen voordeel: vanaf het moment dat we binnenkwamen tot aan de eerste gang hebben we ruim een uur…”
