Valencia Sunset Cruise with Dinner at the Beach

I wish I could give too different ratings for this excursion. First I would give the Cruise 4 Stars. The crew were nice, but there were 3 friends of the the young "captain" who were apparently there for the day to "party." They got off the boat with the last tour and got right back on with ours; they were already drunk when we got on the boat and extremely sunburned. But they did seem to be having fun (who wouldn't if they had access to this opportunity) and did not detract from beauty of the experience. After the cruise, when we asked about the "dinner" part of the excursion, we were pointed toward a restaurant/bar down the pier called Vlue Arribar. Thinking that the ticket would allow us to eat there because the title of the excursion was Cruise and Dinner. The restaurant had no idea what we were talking about, did not accept our tickets from the cruise as validation, and had no "contract" with the cruise company. Starving and tired we sat down anyway and two of the worst steaks imaginable. Please ask the crew about the "dinner" portion of the cruise before you go.

Did not receive the info about the change in restaurants prior to going on the cruise. did not have the dinner, but did pay for it. Was very disappointed. Received the information when I returned to the US. the bost ride was very enjoyable.

There was a disconnect as when you book this they actually broker the 2 pieces.The cruise was great...beautiful boat and setting, but you could book this on your own for way less and then pick whatever restaurant YOU want on the Valencia beach strip.They did communicate with our hotel to let us know last minute change in restaurant...where we had a 20 Euro credit per person.

The Cruise portion of this was amazing. We had perfect weather for a sunset, and nice calm seas. The equipment is up-to-date and feels safe. The lower stars is because the dinner event and the cruise event are really two separate things that are confusing to piece together. The people on the boat had no idea about any dinners after the cruise, they are at least able to point in the direction of the address of the restaurant. The event details only give a name of the restaurant, not a name. A quick google map search before leaving gave me the name of the restaurant, but when arriving there, they thought they were a different street number and sent us up the street. After a few minutes, they came looking for us to tell us it was the right place. There is then no direction about what can be ordered from the menu as the restaurant employees didn't seem to know about any pre-paid plans. However, in the end, we had a quick discussion with our server to figure out what tour operator we had used. I showed him my emails and he didn't charge for the meal. Good tour, and a memorable evening. I just think there should be some better guidance about how to use the tour.
