I arrived at the meeting...

I arrived at the meeting point 10 minutes early for my 5:30 tour and waited around for half an hour, but no one ever showed up. I tried messaging the company through Viator (no reply) and calling the listed number, which turned out to just be for Viator's booking system, not the company itself. With no way to reach the company, this all felt like a scam

Operator response

Hi Laura, I'm very sorry for your experience. We recently launched our tour product, and it has been received very well! However, last night we encountered an unexpected issue. You have the option of a full refund. In addition to this, we would like to offer a complimentary 3 hour bicycle rental with Cycle Cayman. We currently have 7 active locations across George Town and West. Further details were sent to you yesterday morning via direct message in Viator. If you are still interested on completing the tour, we would love to have you on any other evening of your choosing this week. Please let me know. Wishing you all the best!

It’s a guided walk tour that takes you beyond the usual tourist areas to see the real Cayman.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Eddie from Cycle Cayman! From the moment the tour started, his energy, knowledge, and genuine love for Cayman made the whole walk unforgettable. Eddie strikes the perfect balance between fun and informative. He shared so many interesting local stories, history, and hidden spots that we never would have discovered on our own. You can tell he really cares about giving guests an authentic experience, not just a standard tour. He also made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe the entire time, keeping a relaxed pace while still covering a lot. His friendly personality and great sense of humor made it feel like we were exploring with a local friend rather than just a guide. If you're visiting Cayman and want to see more than the typical tourist spots, a tour with Eddie at Cycle Cayman is a must. Easily one of the highlights of our trip (1.5hr) — highly recommend!🚲🌴
