Group size was about 80, completely unmanageable for a city tour. The tour guide’s preparation was at best adequate. She was entirely insensitive to the difficulty people at the rear end of the group had hearing and keeping up with her movement along the Trail. Iatrogenic should cease representing this tour. It besmirches your good name.

We're very sorry about your bad experience. We have already refunded your tickets. Earlier in the day 911 was called for a tour guide who experienced a medical emergency while on tour. All guests were refunded. This led to a lot of traumatized guests, us being down one employee, and many guests asking to take the next tour instead. Unfortunately this made later tours larger than allowed under normal circumstances. In addition to the refund, we would also like to offer you a gift card to take our tour for free at a later time of your choosing. Email us at [email protected] if you'd like to take us up on the offer for a gift card in addition to the refund which has already been initiated.

I purchased this for 6 teenage grandchildren and they didn’t even last through the first discussion.
