Very poor customer service!! - Very disappointed with tour operator. My wife and I had a tour booked for November 30, 2024. Unfortunately one of us got really ill ( food related) the night before and could not make it the next morning. We contacted the tour operator and they explained that there is a 24 hr cxl policy but they could rebook us for Sunday December 1. We agreed and confirmed time and location for pick up but know one showed up. I emailed the operator and never heard anything back. We did eventually get a text telling about a pick up fee of $20 if we wanted to go again ??? Long story short I responded to the text asking why and have sent several email with no answer. Not impressed and out $170 Would never recommend but will share our story with others
