1.00I was very unhappy. Nowhere in the description did it say that we needed to take a shuttle to get from where the cruise parked to wear, the crew started on the other side of the island. We ended up missing the tour and when I called, they were not accommodating or understanding about trying to help us remedy the situation.

5.00This was a tour we'd do again. Joyia Jewelry was beautiful and it was amazing seeing their craftsmen creat pieces in real time. They to the time to explain their process in ways we could understand and their history is both touching and awe inspiring. We also visited several other shops on this tour that welcomed us warmly. I even won a raffle at one of the shops. It was a great day💜
