Never Again

Don't waste your time or money. This tour was not very interesting and in fact, was quite boring. The ride was uncomfortable (very bumpy), and the tour was way too long (over 4+ hours).

Operator response

We are really sorry that you did not enjoy your tour with us. We went back to check our records, and found that you had booked the tour for 3 participants and at the start point, one of you did not feel well, and decided not to go on the tour. Since the begining of the tour, you asked for a refund for the person that did not attend. We had explained that we can not issue a refund, as we have a 24-hour cancelation policy and this was a last minute cancellation. We hoped you would understand our position. During the visit of the Oratory, you left the group and our guide had to go and look for you, as we did not want to leave you behind. We also found that you mentioned; not issuing the refund will result in a bad review. All the best!
