Unexpected but amazing experience

We had a wonderful experience with our tour guide Anthony. When things did not go exactly as planned he went way out of his way to still show us a wonderful time including some juicy tid bits. Thanks Anthony, we really appreciated your time! Don't hesitate to book this tour!!

MISSED COMMUNICATIONS

Conflicting directions on the app for where to arrive and meet up. One address was a parking garage. The description said to find them near the Buckingham fountain; which was not near the 411 E Erie St meeting place. Yes, I went to both places and back to the first place about 12:50 to find no bikes or group or indication of a bike ride. Thus, I requested a full refund which I hope was granted. I have used Viator for many excursions and this was a famous first. Instead of accepting the confusion of two different sets of directions of where to meet up; I was found at fault for leaving the first location (the parking garage). My suggestion; arrive early and read everything in advance.
