Don’t book, they don’t show up!

We waited at the designated area for 1 hour, the van never showed up, no cancellations or running late messages, we called and texted the tour operator - no response, call Viator and they couldn’t get hold of the tour operator either. There were multiple families waiting for 1 hour past the pick up time.

Tour to nowhere

Terrible. The tour operator never showed up. We, along with others, were left standing on a city street for over 30 minutes after the tour was to start -- driver never showed.
