A Nice Taxi Ride (Only!) - This tour was disappointing for the following reasons: 1) The driver did not tell us what kind of car we were looking for. We had to message him after we could not find him. 2) He spoke very poor English and spoke very little. We spent two hours in his car and he probably spoke 30 words. For example, there was a large piece of art on a hill — a silhouette of a bull — he pointed to it and said “bull.” And that was it. 3) He offered us no information, historical or otherwise, during our entire trip. We entered a church in the ancient castle village and he gave us NO history about the church, the castle or the village (and everything written was in Spanish). We asked him how old the church was and he paused, then said “300.” And that was it. 4) We arrived in the village, he walked us to the castle and then said we had two hours to tour the museum and castle, and then shop in the village. He told us to meet him back at the car. 5) We were required to pay the entry fee into the castle museum (€4 each). We thought this was included in the tour price, like every other Viator tour we’ve taken. The two hour ride was beautiful in a very comfortable car. He was a good driver and always courteous. However, this was advertised as a “private tour” that was “accompanied by the driver”. It was not a tour. I it was a taxi ride. We have taken many Viator tours in six countries and we have always been impressed with the quality of the tours and tour guides. This was not up to the standards of Viator tours and most disappointing. We will be sending a copy of this review to Princess Cruises for its information only We write this critical review so whoever seeks to book this particular tour with this operator fully understands the quality of the tour they are purchasing. We didn’t have the benefit of this information. We are requesting a refund (or credit for a future Viator tour) in an amount commensurate with our disappointing experience.
