They told me that it cost 155 each, two days before they told me that I had to pay 35 dollars more for each passenger for heliport expenses and as I was doing the tour with two friends when I arrived at the place they told me that I had to pay 35 more each if you want to go on the same helicopter, the meeting place is on the street in the sun

If you would have read the booking it clearly states that there is a $35.00 heliport fee which everyone pays either when you make your booking or when your arrive to take your tour. No one was Nasty just because they do their job, it is Customer Responsibility to READ. You made 2 bookings under different names we did not know that you were all together until you got to the heliport. You wanted to fly asap because you had other things to do, you were told that the next flight was the 25min tour and yours was the 15min and you agreed to upgrade and you would all be together since there was 3 of you and the other 2 passengers that had booked the Ultimate tour.
