Our tour was supposed to begin at 10:30am. My husband and I were stain Hyannid so we woke up at 5:30am to take a ferry to Martha's Vineyard for the day. We arrived at 9:15am. However, I received an email at 7:25am stating the tour has been moved to 11am. We had lunch reservations at an upscale restaurant which had to be canceled (they had no later times). At 9:33am, I receive a text from Dee Dee, the tour operator asking if anyone is allergic to dogs as she wants to bring her 18lb rescue dog on the tour. I called her and told her ok and asked her for recommendations for breakfast since the restaurants were all busy at breakfast. My husband and I ended up going to the supermarket for danishes. She told me in the phone that we will.meet at the Steamship Ferry ticket office NOT in front of the Homegrown tours office. We arrived to the office at 10:45am. At 11am nobody was there. At 11:01am, I go outside and see the purple van parked. I run inside of the ticket office to get my husband. When we get outside we see the van turning the corner leaving st 11:02am. Obviously Dee Dee could have called me since we spoke earlier. I called her multiple times and her phone was off. I'm sure she was in a rush as to not be late for her afternoon tour! Our morning on MV turned out to be very stressful and our tourguide left us and we had no lunch reservations for my husband Birthday. I recommend avoiding this tour agency at all costs. Disorganized and unprofessional!!
