    Reply from: Bamba Travel
    Thank you for taking the time to review Bamba Experience! Thank you for mentioning how helpful our staff is to go beyond their duties to ensure a good service. We always do our best to ensure satisfaction of our travellers. We deal with the hassle of availability, quality-checking the agencies, and any tax or fee required to pay from abroad so that you don’t have to. We do apologise for the accommodation issue, as you said our regular partner had no availability. Before offering the upgrade we checked online for reviews and comments but no one mentioned any of this. Should be something like this: We're sorry for any undue stress. Thank you for bringing this tour our attention and please rest assured that we are looking into the issue. We would love if you could give us an opportunity to make it up to you on another Bamba tour. Take care, Rene/The Bamba Happiness Team
