El guía decidió cancelar el tour sin previo aviso.
Por suerte le escribí un mensaje 2 horas antes del tour para preguntarle si quedaba confirmada la reserva. Me dijo que se había cancelado la salida.
Por favor escríbanle antes de salir para confirmar si la quedada sigue en pie ya que el no avisa.

Luis Fer never showed up and I did’t get any message canceling it. Took a tour with AIC Tour instead and it was great

Really bad. Unreliable.
Guide never turned up and only cancelled 10 minutes before the departure time after I had travelled across the city.

It was a memorizable experience! This is not one of the big tourist guide companies, but we were able to really connect with our guide Deiby in a small group. Also, we not only walked through the main streets, but also visited side alleys to see how the people in the communa live. Deiby gave us an incredible insight to how the life in his neighbourhood looked like when he grew up and how it is right now. I'd recommend this tour to anybody.
