We booked this tour with Viator and it was represented as a 10 hour tour, to Izamel/Kimblia/Santa Barbara Cenotes. It was NOT, when we realized the error in our trip we advised the guide, who said that tour did not exist. We attended cenotes, which we did enjoy, (had been before) however the main reason for booking was the towns we wanted to see. The guide advised we needed to speak to our booking agent Viator to complain. When we did, they did not seem to care, although they changed the entire tour online, so it did not show the itinerary we booked. Then they told us they would give us $28 usd back…….well that was like a slap in the face, as when they updated the listing they dropped the price!!! So really we got nothing but disappointment, frustration, a lost day of vacation and nothing else. It has also been over a week and no refund!!! I am very disappointed in Viator, and will not use them, nor the parent company again. We were not the only people that got scammed here, there was another lady who was experiencing the same issue……and that was just 1 day and 1 tour……how many others had the same issue?? Shame on you guys! Beware!!

Thank you for your feedback.
We’re truly sorry to hear about your disappointment. We would like to clarify that our tour has always been focused on the cenote experience, which is why it is currently named Santa Barbara Cenotes Adventure. The visit to nearby towns or ruins was previously included as an additional stop due to proximity, but it was not a guaranteed or core part of the itinerary and has since been removed to avoid further confusion.
This update was made to ensure that the experience is clearly presented as a cenote-focused tour. We regret if this change was not clearly reflected at the time of your booking.
As a gesture of goodwill, and as mentioned during your tour, we have already provided a partial refund. We understand that this did not fully meet your expectations, and we sincerely regret any frustration caused.
Your feedback is very important to us, and we will continue working to improve clarity and communication across all booking platforms.
Best regards,

A real shame. I booked tour cenotes+ Izamal+ Kimbila for a duration of 10 hours. €62+€25 was charged for admission to the cenotes. The agency in charge didn't even know about the existence of that tour. The result was that only the cenotes were visited. Not only did it happen to me, there was another couple who had fallen into that trap. Both they and I felt conned and also angry, given that the tour interested us in Izamal and Kimbila, if we had known it was cenotes, we would never have gone. In front of the complaints, all they did was return $14. A real SHAME! A lost day and because of that I have left Yucatan without being able to see these two towns. Surely that's what makes me angry the most. Ever!

Estimado/a cliente,
Gracias por tomarse el tiempo de compartir su experiencia. Lamentamos sinceramente la frustración que esta situación pudo haberle causado.
El día de su actividad fuimos informados de un cambio operativo de último momento, por lo que ya no fue posible incluir las paradas adicionales en Izamal y Kimbilá. Estas visitas se ofrecían originalmente como un complemento sin costo debido a la cercanía con la zona, pero no formaban parte del itinerario principal ni incluían entradas.
También nos gustaría aclarar que el nombre oficial del tour siempre ha sido Santa Bárbara Cenotes, ya que la experiencia principal del recorrido se centra en la visita y el nado en los cenotes de esta área.
Tan pronto como se nos notificó este cambio, informamos a los pasajeros afectados y se realizó el reembolso correspondiente de $14 USD por el inconveniente. Asimismo, el producto ya ha sido actualizado para evitar cualquier posible confusión en futuras reservas.
Lamentamos que esta situación haya afectado su experiencia y comprendemos su decepción. Sus comentarios son muy valiosos para nosotros, ya que nos ayudan a seguir mejorando nuestros procesos y comunicación.
Reciba un cordial saludo.
