Could not find my guide. I was there until 10:40 am. He never announced himself I didn't see anyone who looked like a guide. The guide the before announced himself told us to get a drink what not and when we would be leaving. Nothing this morning. I waited until 10:40 am and left. We already established I was in the right place I had breakfast there waiting for the tour to start. I would like my money back please.
