TOTAL BAIT AND SWITCH SCAM!!!!

Total Bait and Switch!   Lame! Every Shark Tour like this one in Capetown they take you to Gansbaai.   Every tour picture to sell it shows Massive Great Whites on the ad.   Also, nothing is private about any tour.  Just the drive there with an Uber driver.  They say private, but that's what you get.  The dive is packed with people.  When you arrive the town looks like a Great White Museum.  Great White statues, and Every street and hotel is named something around Great Whites.   Every picture in every building including tour operators shows Whites.   All boats say WHITE TOURS on the side of them.  You get the picture.   Before you go out there is a safety briefing.  They say "after this dive you will be a Great White Ambassador"  they get you all excited showing videos of huge Great Whites, etc.    Then at the end they say "unfortunately we can't guarantee sightings as it's nature"   "what you will see is Copper Sharks, and UNFORTUNATELY WE HAVEN'T SEEN A GREAT WHITE HERE IN ALMOST 5 YEARS"   I mean what a joke. We live in Florida.  We see different sharks all the time.  If your looking to see Whites, you won't.    P.s.   This tour operator is very unresponsive after booking. We tried to ask questions about what to bring, and what's provided.  Zero responses!   FYI.   If you do go the tour provides everything you need, towels, snacks, jackets, wet suits,  etc.

Operator response

Thank you for your review however it was unfortunate that you could not see the Great Whites. If you look at title of this tour there is nothing private about it and we are not sure where you got the idea that this was a private tour. If you wanted a private boat tour that would have been 10 times what you have paid. We receive 10 or so bookings per day and you know what, you happen to be the only one who has complained.
