Demanded extra payment once there

Tanya_B, Apr 2023

The boat ride itself was lovely, it was about an hour long we stayed around the area we didn’t go to far. However, 2 days or so before the operator sent me a message to say I would have to pay an additional $10 per person to ride the felucca and this only covered the transport there and back (which doesn’t make sense, if that was the case we would of just gotten a cab) before we got on the felucca they demanded payment which I refused and explained I paid online and this is included in the amount I paid. After we finished the boat ride again they demanded and I refused however I tipped the driver. Once we got in the transport back in the hotel the operator called and the driver stopped the journey. He passed me the phone and I had to tell the operator again for the 3 time I have paid online and this is nothing to do with me if you expecting more payment. The driver then eventually took us back to the hotel. It’s best to book with a different operater perhaps
