Very disappointed, pick up was at 6am (which would have been ok, except we then sat in a van for 1 1/2hrs waiting on the rest of our group to arrive. The floating market was great as was the train market. However, when it came to drop off, our driver refused to drop us off at our accommodation!!!! No explanation, nothing! He told us to get the sky train home.
