“When we arrived, there was no record of our transfer. We had to contact Viator who contacted their vendor to see if they could find a ride for us. The vendor was able to get us a ride. It was 50 minutes past our time we had agreed. It was made right, but for people who are visiting a country for the first time and don’t speak the language, it was a little unsettling. We did arrive at our hotel safe.”
