Krypt tour was nice but the provider had forgotten to send an employee to the church, who could exchange our tickets for those to be used. You have to have what’s app, as the communication by email did not work, so I recommend the trip but not the provider.
Thank you for your review. We're sorry you experienced any issues, but fortunately, our staff promptly resolved them. It's normal for you to receive a voucher from the platform that must be exchanged for a direct ticket, and our staff promptly provided you with your reserved access ticket.

We are so glad we did this tour. I wasn't sure what I was expecting, but the sheer artistry of the bones and skeletons was amazing.

This was a complete rip off. You charged me $101 . For something that should have cost $30! someone from your company just met us at the door and that was it! You made $70 for 1 minute of time. You should be ashamed of yourselves. That was robbery.
