Disappointed that when the tour was created, the creators did not look ahead to realize it was holiday in Australia....
Disappointed that when the tour was created, the creators did not look ahead to realize it was holiday in Australia. We were not able to do one tour planned event- Phillips Island/Melbourne. Which left the walking tour, interesting but not what our plan was. In Adelaide all side tours were cancelled because of holiday. We were left to find things to do in our own. No shops were open in many areas because of Good Friday. The designers of this tour should be aware of these dates and plan accordingly. I am sure time and schedule were included in the pricing of this tour and were were not given an option of monies back or credit. Our tour guide did her best to pivot the last days plan, which ended up with a lot of riding and long travels with no options from one point to the other. This was not the tour guide’s fault… poor planning from company from the start.Show more
