If one does not book directly with the respective boat rental, one is treated as a second-class guest and referred to a smaller boat without a glass bottom. Planned start: 1:00 PM. One should be on site 20 minutes prior for check-in. My name was not on the list, and the online ticket was not examined closely. Then one is waved through, and one should wait and return at 1:00 PM. Then the names of the bookings are read aloud for a roll call. My name was not among them, despite the booking. Upon inquiry, it was said that I had booked through another platform and had to take the smaller boat. Upon arrival, my companion and I had to realize that it was not a boat with a glass bottom, as booked. It was a smaller and older boat. Right next door, all the other passengers took their seats on the glass-bottom boat, and we could hear the tour guide starting the tour. Next to me and my companion was a third guest. None of us knew what was going on, what was happening, when we would start, nothing at all. Around 1:30 PM, suddenly about 12 more guests arrived with rental boats and took their seats on the boat, and then it finally got underway. We then visited 3 out of 4 booked stops. There were 2 swimming stops, as booked. All in all, it was still worth the money. (22.50€ per person.) 3 attractions and 2 swimming stops, plus some information from a tour guide - Tour duration: about 2 hours. We had fun and saw a lot of the island.
Vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, Ihre Erfahrungen mit uns zu teilen. Es tut uns leid zu hören, dass es beim Check-in zu Verwirrungen gekommen ist und Sie sich nicht ausreichend informiert gefühlt haben. Wir möchten klarstellen, dass alle Gäste – unabhängig davon, über welche Plattform sie buchen – bei uns den gleichen Service und die gleiche Aufmerksamkeit erhalten. An manchen Tagen kann es aus betrieblichen oder sicherheitsrelevanten Gründen zu einem Wechsel des eingesetzten Bootes kommen. In solchen Fällen bemühen wir uns stets, eine passende Alternative anzubieten, damit die Tour wie geplant stattfinden kann. Wir bedauern, dass die Kommunikation vor Ort nicht Ihren Erwartungen entsprochen hat und nehmen Ihr Feedback sehr ernst, um unseren Ablauf weiter zu verbessern. Gleichzeitig freuen wir uns, dass Sie die wunderschöne Küste von Zakynthos genießen konnten, Spaß hatten und die Tour trotz der Unannehmlichkeiten insgesamt als lohnenswert empfunden haben. Wir würden uns freuen, Sie bei einem zukünftigen Besuch erneut an Bord begrüßen zu dürfen. Ihr Escape Tours Team
