Wir waren 3 Damen (9, 41, 72 Jahre alt) - uns hat es sehr gut gefallen! Extrem viele Eindrücke und viele Informationen. Mich haben nur 2 Dinge "gestört", die zum perfekten Erlebnis fehlen: 1) Wenn es einen Szenenwechsel gab, war kurzzeitig alles schwarz und man hat auch keine anderen Menschen gesehen - so musste man mitten im Gehen immer wieder stoppen. 2) Der Weg hat oft nach vorne und dann wieder zurück geführt. Dadurch ist man dann den nachfolgenden Gruppen wieder entgegengelaufen und dass hat dann zu Verzögerungen geführt und man hat ein bisschen was von der Geschichte versäumt. (Liegt aber vermutlich an dem recht kleinen Raum und ist nur Kritik auf ganz hohem Niveau, daher auch kein Sternabzug)
