There is a little bit of upselling at a few stages, but nothing major. The basket boats and river boat ride were the kids' highlights, ours was the food. If you are a small eater in hot weather...don't eat breakfast so you can fit it all in. Catered very well for the vegetarian in our group of 8. I'll definitely be making the salad when I get home when I can find a green mango!.”
