Good value for the price - This trip is full of destinations with almost most of the memorials listed on the itinerary except Martin Luther King memorial. I didn't know why it was omitted but I am still satisfied with Juanita my tour guide. The driver is perfect and safely drove to our sight seeing spots and back to drop off area. The tour arrangement is very tight and no time to waste so it is a good value.

Unacceptable - I booked an english speaking tour group which was confirmed. However on the day reporting at 5.40 am I was informed that there was no seats in english group and I had to join Spanish group. This is unacceptable and I need to get compensation

Disappointing - Be careful - not all as described - no wifi onboard. We didn't visit all the places as described on the itinerary. Your dropped off over 10 blocks from where you got on the bus - not the same as the pick-up point as described. A lot of building work at several of the places of interest spoils your memorable photos. Highlighted issues whilst on the trip with both the guide and via the Whatsapp link - Guide did not care and whatsapp did not provide satisfactory response

Don't rely these type of service - The booking was done, payment deducted from bnak and after few hours received message that booking is cancelled by the operator. Very Bad approach.
Guaranteed full refund but I got back QR50 less than what I paid...
When taking booking on third party you should be very careful.
I could go on same day with another operator but the struggle was too much as I planned everything else according to the confimred booking.

Never again - Do no do it. We booked with friends and my friends were send to another bus that never came. They were left in the cold after paying. And the drivers and gudes couldn't be more rude.
