🗣️ TourBookGo verdict

When might Minus 5 ICE BAR not be worth it?

It is not the cheapest option if you simply want a drink, because the price also covers the purpose-built ice venue, warm clothing and two included beverages.

If you are particularly sensitive to cold, bear in mind that temperatures can drop to -10°C. Some reviews also note that the venue may feel crowded at busy times.
