We were lucky to have a knowledgeable tour guide and safe driver, Cindy Lowe, who also had a great sense of humor. She showed us the best sites and beautiful houses around Avalon.

I had booked a trip for December 5, 2021 for 13:30 pm Discover Avalon: Catalina Scenic Tour. I had fully paid in advance and printed the receipt and the Bar Code. Just before the tour was about to begin, we were told to get off the vehicle and informed that Viator FAILED to communicate to the tour operator (Santa Catalina Island Company). We showed them the printed receipt. They tried to tell us that it shows a different date on their local computer. They placed the entire blame on VIATOR. This was a big DISAPPOINTMENT , and a major setback to our anniversary plan. Anyway, they offered to refund our money.

Our flight was canceled due to fog in the Long Beach area, so we could not get to Avalon in time for our booked tour. Viator was unwilling to reschedule nor refund the booking fee. And the tour operator would not make any changes nor refunds since I booked through Viator. Next time I will not use Viator; it's best to go through the tour operator directly to protect against these type of uncontrollable circumstances.
