  False advertising! This is completely not what we expected. Viator claims a day of excursions but you get half that. - The tour operator seemed nice and he was helpful with my elderly mother.

It is about a 3 hour drive to Etna. Mt. Etna was cool and as advertised. We spent 2 hours there.

Next was Taormina. The trip advertises 4 hours in Taormina where you could see the ancient theater on your own. We got 90 minutes and barely got to see the town and have a small lunch. We never had time to see the ancient theater.

The last stop was supposed to be Castelmola but the driver never went there. He just took us back to Palermo.

When asked why we didn’t get what we wanted, Viator responded, “
Unfortunately, per the local operator advise that the tour includes also the vist ot Etna, and this takes at least 2 hours and half the distance from Palermo needs to cover 3 hours up Etna, one hour from Etna to reach Taormina and at least 30 minutes to reach Castelmola from Taormina, then it needs 3 hours and a half back to a Palermo directly to their hotel. If they spend much time in Etna or Taormina then there’s no time to visit Castelmola. And their driver and car have been all day with a loss of cost for them. Therefore, at this time we are unable to offer a refund.”

Viator completely glossed over what they told us we would experience. Buyer beware!

  Great ride from airport to city. Friendly and informative driver! Thanks for your driving skills and street smarts in a crowded city.

  Great service. I’ve used this company twice already and they have been exceptional. Would definitely recommend.

  Subject: Complaint Regarding Unfulfilled Tour and Unjustified "No Show" Claim

I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction with the service my wife and I received during our recent... read more booking for the "Palermo: Bus Tour to Noto, Ortigia, and Siracusa" on August 09, 2024. We paid in advance and were provided with instructions stating we would be picked up from our hotel lobby at 6:00 am on the day of the tour.

We arrived in the lobby at 5:45 am and waited patiently by the door from 6:00 am onwards. We waited for 45 minutes, during which time we saw several guests being picked up for other tours and deliveries being made. We approached every vehicle—cars, vans, and buses—that arrived between 6:00 and 6:45 am, showing our voucher to each driver, but none of them were there for us.

Throughout this entire period, both my wife and I had our phones with us. We did not receive any calls, nor is there any record of missed calls on our phones. We attempted to contact the number provided in the instructions twice but only reached a recorded message. Following this, my wife sent three emails to Tour Transfer City, as suggested, to confirm our phone number and our situation.

After being abandoned and with no response from Tour Transfer City, we contacted Get Your Guide, the website through which we made the booking. They apologized for the inconvenience and initially offered to reimburse us. However, we were later informed by Get Your Guide that Tour Transfer City refused to provide a refund, falsely claiming that we were a "no show." (Get Your Guide has promised to process it anyway)

Tour Transfer City claim is simply untrue. Tour Transfer City did not show up as scheduled, and we have no missed calls or any communication attempts from your company. On the contrary, we have proof of our multiple attempts to contact you—both by phone and email—to no avail.

I am appalled by the dishonest and untrustworthy behavior exhibited by Tour Transfer City. It is clear from other customer testimonials that this is not an isolated incident, but a pattern of deceptive behavior. It is unacceptable to treat customers in this manner, and I demand a full refund for the service that was not provided.

I look forward to your prompt response and resolution to this matter. Failure to address this issue satisfactorily will leave us no choice but to escalate this complaint further.

Sincerely,

David Gertner and Rosane Gertner
