I went to the Fantasia show using them. To be honest, I felt I was paying too much at first, but it’s incredibly good value. After being picked up and driven to our hotel, we were served a three-course dinner along with tea and desserts. My stomach hurt from being so full of food! Not only is the entertainment excellent, but we also got to belittle the horse. Outstanding value for the money!
