The church is wonderful and beautiful! The staff at the church were wonderful. The tour ticket staff contracted by Viator were awful. They did not have my ticket, did not remember receiving my call to ask for a time change. I used the number provided on my reservation and spoke with someone who said it was fine. I arrived with a taxi waiting and told me they did not have a ticket for me and told me to let the cab go because it would take some time to process a ticket. I had to wait and go an hour later only to find upon arrival that they only provided me with an entrance ticket, not the entrance and audio tour that I paid for so I had to pay another fee to obtain an audio guide. The staff at the church were very apologetic. The subcontracted tour vendor never apologized. They provided the worst experience of my entire trip and should be replaced by Viator.
