Rip-off

Frank_D, Jun 2023
Tombs we’re interesting. The $600 price tag for 4 people was ridiculous. Take a taxi and do the tour on your own. The guides there provide different language tours

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Dear Client, We are sorry the tour did not meet your expectations. About the price that you consider "Ridiculous" include the following services: -Hotel Pickup and Drop Off by a deluxe Minivan -English Speaking driver and minivan at disposal for 3 hours -Sightseeing tour along the way to and from the catacombs -Entrance Tickets -Reservation fees -Taxes -Insurance -Commissions -Assistance on-site and from the office Everything can be organized by yourself, and you can certainly save money. What you paid for is not just the tickets, the guided tour, and the transport but all the work of our staff who allowed you to take a tour service in maximum comfort and without having any problems. For the future, in order not to feel robbed, we advise you to organize your trips and services by yourself, avoiding offending those who have worked for you and who rightly must be paid. Thank you for leaving us your review once again. We hope to hear from you. Best regards Stefano
