Company canceled last minute/poor customer service

1.00I booked a parasailing tour over two months ago and today they called me to cancel my tour which was supposed to be tomorrow, saying that last week was the last week they did parasailing. Zero apology for the last minute notice and I had to ask for a refund. I will not try this company again in the future since this was going to be one of the highlights of our trip.
Captains Jake and Steve...

5.00This was my first time parasailing and I must say that the Island Head Parasailing crew did a great job making me feel safe and secure. It was an experience I will do again.

1.00Horrible!!!!! We did NOT get to go parasailing. Owner is argumentative! Zero stars! Viator was blamed for our problem. Long story, would be happy to explain over phone. I recorded call between myself and 1 of the owners, he’s a HUGE jerk. I’m surprised he’s still in business .
Take the chance!!

5.00My husband and I had a fabulous experience parasailing with Steve and William today! It was a very professional/exciting experience! Definitely a “bucket list” adventure!
Enjoyable Overall, But Not the Most Welcoming

3.00The activity itself was fun and smooth, and I would definitely do it again. However, I did feel a bit left out during the experience. I was the only minority in the group, and it seemed like I was the only one the staff didn’t really engage with—aside from when I was putting on the gear. The guy wasn’t very friendly toward me, which made the experience feel less welcoming. I’d consider doing this again, but probably with a different company that makes everyone feel equally included.
