They only charge you to board: They don't keep track of where you get off. And, wear waterproof shoes: The water washes right onto the deck of the boat unless you're way up front away from the entrances. Entry spots are in the middle on the sides.

It's fun to hear where everyone's from: They all swear in their own languages every time!
