No show and no call probably double booked as referenced in other reviews it seems to have happened to multiple people

Amazing!! Michelle is generous with her time and passionate about her town! We enjoyed learning the history and got great tips for shopping and where to eat. She encouraged us to see the most beautiful views from all over! Definitely will do this again when we bring friends and family!!

This excursion is a MUST for first time visitors to Traverse! Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful! We learned so much about this city! A great introduction!

We booked online and got a confirmation along with our “ticket” the day before our ride. Ten minutes before our scheduled departure time the driver texted to tell us she was overbooked and would not be honoring our reservation. Wouldn’t the driver have recognized the conflict earlier than ten minutes before and let us know before we drove to get there? The driver never apologized or told us how to get a refund. I was on my own to call viator. Viator was helpful in addressing the concern. Use caution if this ride looks appealing. You might be left standing on the sidewalk.

My husband and I took this trip the first morning of our full day in Traverse City. It was a great way to learn about the history, but more importantly, some of the best food and drink spots! The guide was very knowledgeable and humorous. I felt safe the whole time, and enjoyed seeing the various parts of Traverse City that I would not have discovered on my own.
Response from Host, Jul 2024
Awww...thanks so much for your kind words. We were very happy to show you around our amazing city. Thanks for visiting and thanks for choosing Happytown Rickshaws to explore with!

My girlfriend and I got there 15 minutes early. You never showed up. We called and were told you would get back to me in 24-48 hours for a reschedule. It never happened. This ruined my experience in Traverse City.
I want my money back, a credit to my credit card and an apology would also be nice. Also an explanation would be helpful.
Response from Host, Jun 2024
Hello, my name is Michelle and I own Happytown Rickshaws. There was some sort of scheduling conflict between our booking system and Viators system which had this down for next week in my schedule. I did not receive any calls from Viator about this otherwise I would have called you back to reschedule. If you are still in town please call me at 231-486-0028 and we can get. you rebooked!
~ Sorry for the inconvenience
