I arrived around 10 a.m. on Friday (August 22nd) without a reservation or a set time. There were spots available, and I only had to wait about 5 minutes for the boat to fill up with other passengers. It wasn’t overcrowded - they waited until all seats were taken, but didn’t try to squeeze in as many people as possible. The cruise was great, definitely recommend it! The price is currently 20 euros per adult.
