Sebastian was a great tour guide. Knowledgeable and entertaining. The caves were incredible and the music performance really was amazing in the cave environment. It made for quite an unforgettable experience.
Great communication and agent made sure we were on time to the minute! Gave great advice and communication was in 4 languages.
A disaster the confirmation by TripAdvisor. I booked the tour around here for reliability and I was not confirmed either pickup point or time. We were from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., opening the office at a bus stop on the street waiting in case he left without us. Thanks to a bus that stopped and helped us a guide of another excursion to manage it. The trip does not last all day, only 4 hours in the morning. The caves are spectacular but there are a lot of people inside and that is May.
The guide, Bartolo, was fantastic; very pleasant and instructive. A pleasant and well organized tour. The negative point was that the offer of the activity included the pick-up from the Saratoga hotel and a couple of days before we are told that we have to go to a meeting point, which was confusing, as I was traveling with an elderly person.
Unfortunately, the coach did not tune up to the agreed pick up point and when we called after it was 15 minutes late we were todl it had picked up 8 people from our stop already, despite us showing everyt coach which stopped out ticket. One week later and I am still waiting for the refund I was promised. Extremely disappointing, luckily we still made it to the Caves of Drach using public transport.
Very nice place. The very good show. The transfer met my expectations and the departure and arrival so close to the hotel was very good
The professionalism of the guide Suitable for everyone Interesting for a morning in Palma Maybe they should set the course a little more
Pick up was prompt but having to change Coaches was unexpected and bit of a pain. Requested trip for English speaking and although guide was multi lingual having to go through things in I think 5 languages became tiresome for us and I’m sure the Lady guide
Easy to find meeting place. Very nice coach ride to the caves. The experience was just lovely and well organized.
I booked this tour several weeks before our cruise. The boat was supposed to doc at 7 am and the tour started at 9am. It should not have been a problem. The cruise ship changed the docking time to 10 am the day before the tour. I emailed the company and was told they would not refund or wait for us. I guess this is the reason to stick with excursions through the cruise line.
