Unexpected experience

Beatrice_P, Jul 2024

As a travel agent I know that unexpected events can happen. I have found myself in the situation to have to cancel or modify tours for my clients to ensure the best experience possible. So it seems like the organizer did not check the weather and maintained this all outside tour. The very beginning of the tour was fine. We were able to do part 1 and our guide was very nice and entertaining. The rest of the day was more difficult. Our boat broke down. The pilot was able to fix it rather rapidly. We then encountered a terrible hail storm. The only protection we had was the life vest. We ended with a few bruises. We were drenched and the inside of our backpacks were drenched as well. We had to finish the day with no dry clothes or towels ( and a 2 hour bus ride in cold A/C being wet is highly uncomfortable). The restaurant and the food was nice. Very typical and authentic. Good spot. The service I booked was for a pickup and drop-off at the hotel. A woman travelling alone with 3 teenage girls it is common sense for safety. I was told in the bus that the bus was not going to be able to drive us to our hotel. That they were gonna reserve a taxi for the end of the ride!! I find this very irresponsible to leave 1 woman and 3 teenage girls in the dark in a taxi. How to know how safe this is?!?! I took pictures of the guide, taxi license plate and send it to someone in case we were kidnapped. This was the scariest 15 minutes of my life. In spite of the weather and the fact they didn't modify or cancel the trip I would have 3 stars at least. But the end of the ride in a taxi was irresponsible and I am very upset to have been put in this situation.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Bad weather can suddenly happen and it's out of everyones control. The weather was forecast to be good during the day, however, the sudden rain happened, it was nothing near a hailstorm (that does not happen in the south area of Mexico) The guides turned down the AC as soon as everyone got in. Due to your claims and complains the guides offered to get you directly to your hotel on a private taxi on payroll to avoid more waiting while other travelers were dropped off

Disappointing and misleading tour

Shanyu_S, Jun 2022

The description on the page is inaccurate. There is no mention of 2h drive each way and it was definitely not a sailing tour as we were on a speed boat for 30 mins max each way.

Response from Host, Jun 2022

We are sorry that you didn't read correctly the content of the product. All experiences and tours that includes transportation will always have transportation time, this is displayed at the product too. There is no mention of any sailing boat anywhere in the product Asking for things that are not included in the product is not a genuine reason to ask for a refund, as you did We hope to welcome you again in a tour that you can enjoy
