Mix up repaired-best guide!!! - We got to the meeting spot and everyone was picked up except us. Then the driver of that group came back and called Hightide and they readily admitted they had messed up. We’d booked a 9:00 and they put us at 2:00 which was when our cruise ship was leaving. Our paper work showed 9:00 and they were very kind. They called a guide in the next city over and sent him. He got there at 11:00. His name was LOUIS and he was THE GREATEST EVER!!!!!!!!! He was informative and fun. He was on a time crunch to get us back so he asked what we wanted to do most and made sure we did our favorite things. He pointed out tons of fish and told us about each one as we snorkeled. He also gave us lots of interesting history about Cabo and the arch. LOUIS SAVED OUR DAY!!!! We love him! And we are grateful that Hightide was quick to admit to and fix their mixup.
