    The tour itself was good, It was just that the islands didn’t really live up to my expectations.

    Thank you for sharing your experience here with us. We can certainly appreciate the frustration that may have been felt on this occasion, as you had cancelled your trip and awaited reimbursement. Our teams are doing everything they can across the board to make sure our guests are being taken care of, and that any refunds that are due are being processed in a timely manner. That said, we regret that yours may have still taken some time to be processed, and we genuinely hope that it has reached you since. We appreciate your custom, and hope to have the chance to travel with you some day.
