Always communicate with your vendor

Generally smooth but they didn’t show up at meeting point and made me very worried! I wish like other tours we booked they let me know at least a day in advance that they are sending me PDF tickets Rather than all was god and smooth You are lucky your colleagues ( other vendors) backed you up when they saw us panicked they you are not there
