The Florida Everglades - Trip was awesome! Santiago is an absolute legend. Some great information on the city of Miami, with a few jokes along the way! #vibesarehighwithsanti

Customer service - Events were good. Customer service was poor, lacking any type of help. No direction on helping the customers to where to go.

Good tour / terrible communication. - We booked the full day tour. The tours were great but the communication was terrible. For example we arrived at the Everglades and did not know what to do next. We then went for the boat ride and didn’t know where to go. The last bus ride was late by 30 minutes. If you book with them, advocate for answers as they do not present them very well.

Better directions and communication for a nicer experience - Knowing we have limited time in Miami prompted us to maximize our experiences in the most comprehensive way, hence the reason why we picked the Best of Miami Combo. We read and followed directions on where to meet and what was included in the combo but what it failed to mention was how to get from one activity to another. After getting off the bus from the Everglades, no Big Bus rep was there to explain to us where to get on the Hop On Hop Off Scenic Tour. Luckily we stayed at and hung around at our drop off stop until we saw the open top bus and asked the driver how and where to go to catch the Bay Cruise. Unfortunately, because it was late by the time we reached the stop where we needed to go for the Bay cruise, the last cruise has already left leaving us stranded and very frustrated. The good thing about this is we were issued a voucher to redeem the cruise the following day. However, if only there were clearer instructions on how to transition from one activity to the next, we would have been able to do all 3 events at the intended time it would have taken.

Research tour operator and tour options - Complete mid representation of what is offered and how you need to complete it. I don’t know if this is a tour operator error or a trip advisor error but it’s gravely disappointing.

False advertising - I joined this program, which was originally supposed to include three activities, but the open-top bus and bay cruise were missing. They ignored my complaint, handled the issue very poorly, and had a terrible attitude. There was also false advertising. I advise others to think carefully before purchasing.

Cancelled on the morning with poor communication from Big Bus tour operator - We booked the Miami and Everglades combo through trip advisor as we had one day to spend in Miami. We were really excited for this tour but very disappointed on the day. After arriving at the bus stop, nobody turned up for 45 minutes. We tried calling the company on multiple times and it just went to voicemail. I called Viator customer services who also could not contact big bus who are the tour operator. After an hour, big bus did arrive for the hop on hop off tour (which is the tour they offer without the Everglades add on) There had been traffic and a crash on the highway which had caused delays. This would’ve been fine if the customer service had been good at any point. However, the tour operators who arrived were rude and dismissive. They were particularly critical that we had booked through TripAdvisor rather than direct with them. They rudely informed us that the tour to the Everglades would be cancelled and that we should go to Tripadvisor for a refund. They did not offer us an alternative. This was an incredibly poor experience with inadequate communication throughout. I would not recommend booking with this company.
