If Viator don’t want their ratings to go down, I would suggest they remove the company name The company Star Blue Catamaran in Cancun from offering tours. We travel a lot and this has been by far the WORSE EXPERIENCE EVER!! I wrote viator my complaint, they said unfortunately they could not give me a refund. I asked for a supervisor and have not been able to get one. First of all, we had to wait outside in the heat for our driver to arrive thirty minutes late to pick us up for the excursion. The tour operator was unresponsive when I messaged them, and the phone was disconnected when I tried to contact. Furthermore, the driver did not apologize for being late when he arrived. In addition, he pulled over to the side of the road to use his phone and stopped to take films. We were then informed that we could not snorkel after the boat had sailed away after we arrived at the boat. We mostly booked for snorkeling, thus this was a tremendous annoyance. Additionally, there was a cost associated with reserving the coral reefs. yet we didn't get to see any reefs or be near any. I feel as if they waited to take our money first and sail off so that we couldn't try to cancel and get our money back. Another thing I noticed is that the music was not diverse at all. They have a lot of tourism going on so it was weird how they only played one genre the entire time. No one even wanted to dance or sing. Then, when we docked to eat we were told to be ready by 1:20pm. We had just docked at 12:20pm. Between docking late and having to walk to the lunch place we only had about 30-45 min to eat and use the bathroom. When my group walked back to the boat we were told that it's actually 1:40pm and to find something to do smh. Also, when we went shopping one of the workers said they would charge my friend $35; however, they charged her 700 pesos which is actually closer to $42. When she tried to tell them, they ignored her and still took her money. Lastly, on the way back our guide told us that our transportation was waiting for us. It was not. We got there and there was no one waiting. The guide then told us that it was actually a 5 minute wait. 5 minutes turned into 10, and then 20, and then an hour. Again, there was no apology for this. One of the families sharing the van had a baby who was obviously upset and hot and tired of waiting. Overall, if I could give this experience 0 stars I would. I hope that the customer service team takes note of my comments and kindly decide to issue a refund. I'm not happy at all and don't feel comfortable booking on trip advisor or viator if they just let any company have a booking page.
