5.00The tour manager was very accommodative of our last minute request to reschedule our trip. We were able to take the trip on another day and had a very good experience with our guide Vikram.
Not what I signed up for

2.00Do not select the option to purchase admission tickets to the hot springs in advance with this tour. You do not get them and then they won’t refund your money. The tour that we went on was also not what we signed up for. It seemed like they combined 2 tours together and we went to lakes that were not in the original itinerary plus they were going to skip the hot spring altogether because we were the only travelers in the group who had that option on our tour. So we were given 15 minutes at the very end of the tour to walk on our own from the gondola to the hot springs, only to be told they would not honor our tour ticket that said “with hot springs” as they have no contract with Viator and we could pay another $16.50 each again if we wanted to go in. I have requested a refund from the tour operator several times and still haven’t received it. This is the first time I have had a bad experience with a tour on this app.

1.00Worst, we originally booked for Gondola, hot springs, and three lakes. We got mail in the midnight before the trip that we are going to lake Louise and lake moraine. We had planned to go to lakes the next day. It messed up our plans. The manager said take the lakes tour and I will adjust you next day for Gondola. So we cancelled the lakes trip which was with other agency and went with them. The next day the manager says I couldn't accommodate you and you can take full refund. The manager's mismanagement ruined our trip, messed up our plans, and we haven't got the refund. One more thing, we had to argue with the manager the whole trip instead of enjoying the trip that they put us in. Please get us our full refund ASAP if the agency is reading this.
There was no free bottled water as was mention in the deal. A/C was not working as good.

2.00There was a lot of side trip looking for more passengers. We were behind. No free complement bottled water. The bus was not as new a/c was not working good as it was so hot that day. We were 21 in the bus.
Poor driver/guide

3.00The guide, Cum, was awful. He was rude and disrespectful and had little idea of what he was doing. He also arrived 45 minutes late for pick up
