Local operator cancelled last minute with no satisfactory explanation. Left us without sufficient time to book an alternative activity for the final day of our holiday. Avoid at all cost!
Dear Ross, We are very sorry to hear about your recent experience. The last-minute cancellation by our local operator and the lack of a satisfactory explanation are unacceptable, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused, especially on the final day of your holiday. We understand how disappointing and frustrating this situation must have been for you. Please know that we are taking immediate steps to address this issue with our local operators to prevent it from happening in the future. We have processed the refund and you will receive the money from your original payment channel. Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We appreciate your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to make things right in the future. Safe travels!
Fantastic experience if you like outdoor sensations and wild water fun. Well organised despite last minute change of early pickup time
This trip includes a ride on the colonial era railway (basic in the extreme, but no less for it), with a rafting experience down the jungle river. We opted for the more challenging level 3/4 rapids which saw some of us thrown out of the raft on a few occasions! A good fun day all round.
Thanks for leaving us such a wonderful review. We are thrilled that you loved your experience.
We specially planned the end of our holiday to include this tour cutting short our stay on Gaya Island to ensure we could fit it in. Initially all was good, communication to confirm pick up times and we were really looking forward to it. Pick up time came and went and we sat patiently in our hotel lobby, after 20 mins the hotel staff asked if they could help and contacted the company for us. 10 mins later they were called back to advise the trip was cancelled as the train had broken down. Whilst I appreciate the breaking down of the train has nothing to do with this company it was the lack of communication and the fact that we were just left sitting there which has prompted this review. Also upon investigation it seems the train breaking down is quite a frequent occurrence, but this is not mentioned in the tour details, had it been and we had understood the risk we probably would not have arranged our holiday to specifically accommodate this tour. On a positive side the company did provide a full refund immediately, but sadly due to the lack of communication we had already formed a poor opinion of this company/tour
