The tour was cancelled by the tour guide. Awaiting my refund from Trip Advisor. He cancelled after the booking was made and less than 24 hours after the tour was ordered. And he did not contact me, I contacted him to ask a question. Trip Advisor also did not contact me about the cancellation. As previously state, awaiting my refund from Trip Advisor
