Well by bad luck all 3 days I spent in San Pedro were very cloudy so I was not able to go on the tour but I applaud their integrity and professionalism to cancel the tour instead of taking the money and giving a bad experience. They were extremely communicative the entire time and they processed the refund within 2 hours of me asking for it and notified me they have completed their end of the refund. If you are looking for a star tour stop looking and book with this agency. If they take care that much when things go bad it has to be even better when things go well.
