Viator’s Meeting Place Error

Viator gave us the wrong meeting place on our tickets & emails sent! Thank goodness our tour guide, Robin, texted us that morning with the correct meeting spot! Places to meet were across town from each other. Luckily our guide had a phone number for me to call to verify she was the guide & that Viator sent the wrong meeting place. Caused my husband & I undo stress for what was a vacay excursion! We loved Robin as our tour guide for the French Quarter taste testing!
