We were disappointed that this tour was not the same as indicated in our tour description. There were others on the tour who had a different printed itinerary than we did. Our tour said we were supposed to have 3 hours in Antigua. We were walked around for about an hour and a half and then dropped off at the Jade Museum. Think kick-back for Viator Our tour did not mention touring the museum and store but others had it included in their description. This is a very neat old city and we would have liked time to visit some of the shops. There was no time for us to go anywhere other than the Jade Store. Very disappointing and that was a complaint voiced by everyone. We drove past an active volcano that was spewing out a lot of smoke. It would've been nice to have stopped for a picture but we had to see it out the bus window. Those on the wrong side of the bus didn't even get to see much of it. Our time at the Hot Springs was nice and the food was good. The tour bus large van was overloaded. Many were forced to ride for over an hour in the jump seats. When the road is bumpy and it is crowded it's no fun to sit in a seat that has half a back to support you. They definitely oversold. We saw some nice things but the tour could have been much improved. Always nice to get what you signed up for.
