This is not a reliable or fair tour operator. I am currently fighting with Viator to get money back for the tour we did not go on. It should be listed in details that your layover should at least 8 hours to be able to complete this tour. I messaged the tour operator prior to our arrival about our flight information and they did not mention this. They barely responded with I information about meeting; I had to pull for more information about meeting for the tour. We arrived to immigration and were turned away due to our layover being 7 hours and 5 minutes. We also spoke with Ethiopian Ailines about possibly receiving a hotel voucher as this would allow us to leave the airport; they also declined due to our layover duration. I had the airport staff speak with the driver about what was happening, over the phone. During this time and for the remainder of the day, the tour operator became unresponsive and ignored my messages until I had Viator support contact them. We paid $300, and the operator eventually offered only a $90 refund. Unacceptable! At most they could have kept $60 to pay the driver, but kept $210. I will continue to fight for the remainder refund. Beware of this tour operator for layovers under 8 hours, or booking with them, in general, as they will ignore you if things go wrong.
