They sent two different meeting points and did not show up to either by 3pm. Called company, weee told to go to the exit and the guide would meet us there by 3:15 Had to buy tickets at gate.

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about the confusion you experienced regarding the meeting point and entry. We kindly ask you to check your WhatsApp messages and email, where the official ticket voucher was shared with you. The voucher includes the meeting point picture, location, and all the instructions required for the activity. We recommend reviewing these details, as they were provided to assist you with locating the meeting point and joining the activity. We also contacted our ground team regarding your case. They advised that you could have joined the 16:45 PM session if you were still at the meeting point. However, we understand that a refund had already been requested and processed through Viator. We would also like to clarify that the 15:15 PM session operated as scheduled, with 19 participants successfully joining the activity. We are currently investigating the matter further from our side. We sincerely regret the inconvenience caused and appreciate your feedback.
