Our guide didn’t show up. The man at the sightseeing ticket office told us to get on the boat anyway, so I though maybe the guide would be meeting us in Georgetown. I called Walks USA the company who the tour is actually through and they said they were going to call me back with a refund and they still haven’t called. I was terribly disappointed and still no confirmation that our $200+ Is being returned.
