They Canceled on us Last Minute!
This company canceled on us last minute, left us completely stranded. The cancellation was so late that we could not even book another tour in the time allotted and ruined our entire itinerary. Considering we are tourist and have limited time it is very inconsiderate to cancel last minute. Please read other reviews. We were not the only ones with a poor review of this company. Consider this when booking with this company.
