Do not book with Star Florence

Grey_H, Oct 2023

Do not book with Star Florence Tours as the tour operator. They cancelled the night before. We were able to find another different tour but did not check who the tour operator was (we should have). Waited a long time at the meeting point and no one arrived. Star Florence again.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Dear Customer, Cupola is a specific tour in Florence. We are the best company doing this tour. No one likes to do this because tour operators face many problems with this tour. The museum management decided to close the Cupola without informing the tour operators. We sent you a message explaining why we cancelled this tour. Anyway, we refunded the total money for you. Thank you again, and I am sorry for the inconvenience you were caused.

Esistono?

Alessandra_C, Nov 2022

Nulla da condividere, in quanto dopo aver acquistato i biglietti online siamo stati contattati telefonicamente per comunicarci che il tour era annullato e che ci avrebbero rimborsato. Nessun rimborso e cmq nessun tour perché all'orario previsto non era effettivamente presente nessuno. La cosa peggiore è l'assoluta impossibilità a contattare il centro assistenza o qualunque operatore Viator. Pessimo. 197 euro di nulla. Scegliete altri operatori. Scegliete gente seria.

Response from Host, Nov 2022

Dear Customer, We have already informed Viator about the refund. That day our tour was sold out. Because of our API system error. Our company no need to get the money without the tour. We are an established tour company. So please let us know when you receive your refund.
