  • HORRIBLE! Make sure the system gives your the correct date when checking out

    Horrible experience with Viator and the vendor selling these tickets. The system gave me the wrong date when purchasing and I had to purchase a set of 2 tickets. When trying to get a refund for the incorrect date they had no regard that I spent $600USD total and didn’t give me a refund or at the very minimum a credit on my Viator account.

    Shops demand cash mostly The cable cars are moving fast and the lines aren't so long. We order beers in brewteco and very apathetic employees not very pleasant their attention (first station ) I suggest buying from the machines is faster than the ticketing line
