No body came to pick us at the meeting point and no information given and local tour operator is in India - We were waiting at the meeting point in Amsterdam central station. No body came to pick us . I called viator two times before the tour starts and they told to call an Indian phone number of Yo tours. I am waiting at the meeting point from 11.10 am and upto 12.30 pm. Yo Tours is fake and fraud and we immediately request our our money back. Why I have to call Indian phone number travel agent from Amsterdam Netherlands. We have called viator two times 11.31 am and again 12.20 pm as we have not gone for this tour and want our money back.
