I enjoyed our driver however I was expecting a bus trip with other people to meet, the wording about it being a group tour was very deceitful. I didnt read the small print, so it was my fault, but why is it not clear that you are providing your own group. My driver was new he said, I tipped him well, but I was shocked at his low wages for what he was doing. Very upset that tour radar seems to be taking a large cut of the money. Shame on you.Show more
