Worst Tour Operator Ever!

Mark_S, Oct 2025

Tour Operator never showed at our hotel to pick us up! They also never contacted us in any way, shape or form!

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Hi Mark, I’m truly sorry for the frustration you experienced. According to the Viator record, the booking was placed late at night for the following morning’s departure. Our operations team saw it the next morning, by which time the pickup window had already passed. Our emergency phone/WhatsApp numbers and email were listed on the voucher; we didn’t receive any call or message. In addition, once we noticed the timing issue we wrote to offer moving your tour to a later date, but we didn’t receive a reply. As soon as we confirmed the situation, we processed a full refund immediately. We take reliability very seriously and normally operate this tour daily with confirmed, advance reservations. If you give us another chance, please contact us directly and we’ll prioritize your booking with a courtesy discount. Thank you for the feedback—it helps us improve our after-hours monitoring.

This was a great...

hace 10 dias me ofrecieron el rembolso de este tour por falla de su operador, y no he recibido la devolucion que me habian ofrecido que se iba a hacer en maximo 2 dias 10days ago you offered the refund of this tour that you failed to provide, not only this caused a problem because it was the last day of staying in Istambul, but the money is not yet refunded..... awful service from all point of view
