Do not book with this company!

1.00Do not book with this company! The owner is mean, rude, and has no customer service whatsoever. My train was late due to some technical issues, I messaged the owner but received no response. We were 8 minutes late due to this, and when I finally got a hold of the owner, he told me that the guide was waiting in "the square" and she would only wait for 10 minutes, and then our tour was canceled, without refund of course. They listed the wrong meeting point on Viator, so on top of being 8 minutes late from the train, I was also 20 minutes away from the meeting point THEY gave me. The owner was very rude and refused to take responsibility and blamed ME for being being the wrong place! Since we were on a guided tour, I had not done any research on the city and I had no idea how to get to this square. They told me it was a 20-minute walk, and the guide would only wait for 10 minutes, making it impossible to make our tour, even though the owner listed the wrong address. He was extremely rude to me and refused to flex or take any responsibility for his error. (We were the only people scheduled on this tour, so it would have been very straightforward to either wait for us or pick us up at the point they gave us.) Additionally, 90-minutes of our wine tour was canceled because the winery was apparently closed, and rather than arranging for a different winery, they only refunded us 4 euro. This company has horrible business practices, and is very unprofessional. They want your money and will not support you, or be flexible if something goes wrong. It does look like they did correct the meeting point address. Our guide ended up waiting for us despite, and she did do a great job. I hope she finds work with someone better. Do yourself a favor and book somewhere else!!

5.00The horse show was terrific
One of my traveling companions had an accident that made it impossible for us to meet up with the historical tour. Viator was superb in making arrangements for us to complete the remaining events.
The horse show was high on my bucket list during our three-week adventure. I was not disappointed.
