No tour guide showed up for this tour, scheduled to begin @ 10AM. We waited for 45 minutes and also arrived early. Emails and phone calls have gone unanswered. This is a hideous business practice, I will follow up with the Better Business Bureau

The guide never showed up and no one contacted me to say it was cancelled... So there is nothing to rate.
