    Not for me

    Not for mobility challenged people. It states on booking that you get mint tea well, we are yet to see that.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, although we were surprised by your comments given what actually occurred during your experience. We would like to clarify a few points regarding your tour: Regarding the mint tea: Due to the extreme heat on that day, you personally decided to shorten your experience and leave earlier than planned. You specifically asked not to wait for the mint tea service and requested that our driver take you back to your hotel as soon as possible. The tea was indeed included and prepared, but we simply respected your decision to leave immediately. Regarding the follow-up after your experience: As always, we care deeply about our guests' satisfaction and well-being. We contacted you via WhatsApp after the activity to check on you and ask about your experience. During our conversation, you informed us that you had been feeling unwell throughout the day, which is why you did not wish to continue the excursion. Our team is committed to delivering every service included in our experiences while adapting to our guests' comfort and personal requests. We are sorry that your health condition and the extreme weather affected your experience, but throughout the tour we respected your wishes and acted accordingly. Kind regards, The Agency Team
