You had no complaints when you returned from your tour, you actually were happy and wanted to do it again in the future.

The company is very much money driven. They are not respectful at all. The team does not care about safety nor ensuring the overall experience of the tour. There are other companies out there which are much more professional and legit. The van which picked us up did not even have a door handle on it. At that moment, we knew we had gone with the wrong company.

You were called from our office to find out where you were because you had missed your check in time. The van had made 2 drops off before you came toward the van which was almost your flight time. You were charged a late fee which states on your booking because you were late, as far as the handle being broken a customer had broken it the same day. You base a broken van door handle with your tour which makes no sense. All companies have a Late fees policy including Airlines.

Its in the middle of nowhere and my car pickup canceled on me when the tour was over an hour late because they were down 1 helicopter. Thankfully one of the pilots gave my family a ride to the train station.
