    The national park was...
    Ann_F, Nov 2023
    The national park was absolutely beautiful and we loved the hike! However, we were supposed to be picked up at 9:30, at 9:50 I finally called the telephone number and he said they thought it was at 10:30. Somebody showed up, at first his sign said Someone else’s name… Then he came up to us. He didn’t speak any English at all, so on our ride to the park, we asked about a couple of trees, etc. he couldn’t talk to us at all. I was very disappointed, my previous experience with guides is that they could speak English, and they could converse with me. He seems like a very nice young man, but I don’t think he’s been trained.
    Not satisfied.

    We arrived for our excursion to find that we had a non English speaking guide (driver) in a car that had partially drank water bottles and some trash in it. Our driver did not know that park fees were included (a nominal amount, but still!). He was very nice, but could not communicate with us. He took us to both destinations and back to our hotel. I contacted viator and was told that our guide had gotten sick so this guy filled in, and when I requested a partial refund viator agreed to $50. I did not think $162 was a fair price for a ride. Not satisfied with how viator handled this.

    On the season we had tours everyday and problems with health or car are somehow normal. We are sorry that you didn't have the best excperience but at least we tried.
