Shame on you

1.00First of all i always chose Viator when traveling because thay have best tours and service. This time in a cruise i had best affordable options but i oreferred to pay 120 EUR instead of 60 EUR cruise, because Viator is better. I was traveling in a MSC Cruise. We had a rough day at high sea but the next day when we arrived to Rotterdam weather was fine. I had seen that storms were expected but i trusted Viator to cancel a 6 hours walking tour if weather was not suitable. At 5:50 pm captain informed us that due to severe conditions dhip was not going to stop in Zeebrugge. I imediattly called Viator both guide, US services and using chat channel informing that we could not take exvursion. 16 hoirs before. I got the message that the 300 EUR were not beeing refunded as 16 hours was less than 24 h notice and cruise changes were not covered. I think this was mean, we understand the terms but we did what was possible and most of all it was a matter of saphety. Did the tour either boat included took place if it was not safe? Are you keeping our 300 hundred EUR and lose a limg kasting customer. Shame on you. You just took profit of what you know beeing unexpected and out of control situations. Dont take Viator. They were not honest. And they asked us for our opinion in this tour!!! Teasing us!
Old world charm and try the Belgian Waffles and pralines

5.00It is worth a visit-Bruges has an old world charm that will truly captivate you. Don’t forget to buy Belgian chocolates from Neuhass-where the first praline was invented. It was a bummer it rained when we were doing the canal cruise but it did not dampen our spirits. Even got to eat Belgian waffles at the House of Waffles-delicious ! Buy their premium lace for souvenirs.
Cozy vibes all day

5.00The smell of fresh waffles in Bruges is unforgettable! We grabbed one, sat by the canal, and watched people paddle by. The guide also gave us tips for the best chocolate shops – and wow, Belgian chocolate really is the best I've ever had 🍫!

5.00We saw the famous Belfry tower, walked along the canals, and took a short break in a little café . I bought lace and handmade chocolate as souvenirs , so unique and local! It was relaxing, organized, and way better than trying to figure it out ourselves.
Lovely town and great day
