Susan_F, May 2026

I wouldn't recommend taking this tour. The tour guide spoke very little English which proved to be a huge problem when I discovered they hadn't been paid for the horseback ride and I had to pay again. This tour was over £125 and the horseback was $40 (which was subsequently refunded, less fees, but only paid after I asked for a full refund via Viator). This tour is NOT value for money. I'd book a simple transfer that included breakfast and lunch for a fraction of the price and pay for the horseback ride when you arrive. Despite apologies and promises to refund, the agent, who subtracted to another company, was difficult to deal with and blamed the company. Spoiled the day for me.

Response from Host, May 2026

Hello, dear Susan Fortune, Thank you for your feedback, and I’m very sorry your experience with us fell short. We take reports like this seriously. I’m sorry for the confusion and inconvenience over the horseback payment. That should not have happened. We aim for transparent pricing and clear logistics so guests never feel pressured to pay twice. Improving coordination between our office and partner vendors to ensure responsibilities and refunds are handled promptly and transparently. If you’re willing, I’d like to investigate your reservation personally and ensure any remaining concerns are resolved. Please send your booking reference, travel date, and the best contact email (or reply here), and I’ll follow up directly. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We value your feedback and hope to restore your confidence in our tours. Happy Gringo Team!
