Cancellation without replacement of guided tour

You canceled the day before a guided tour of the Duomo of Milan that we had booked a month in advance. Without any comments and without providing us with an alternative solution We have been clients for a long time, and the lack of support is outrageous; our trip from France was focused on this visit
