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

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.
