    I was extremely excited for this tour. It is truly too bad it turned out this way. We booked this trip a little bit over a week in advance, and double checked the details a few days before to ensure we have everything set up for a successful trip. We located our tickets in our email, confirmed the date of our trip, the time of pick up, and even double checked to make sure that the pickup address we had provided was accurate. On the day of the trip, we stood outside of our pick up location 10 minutes in advance of the time identified on our tickets, 8am. At 8:01 we decided to double check to ensure that we did in fact put in the correct address one more time, as our previous experience with trips like this, the driver comes on time or a little early. After confirming that everything was correct, we called Andrei to make sure we are good to go. On the phone, Andrei claimed that we never confirmed our address officially and that he has already left the city. Only a few minutes past the pick up time and he was already out of the city? Questionable. He also told us that we cannot receive a refund. We were shocked. No alternative was offered to us, other than a non-heartfelt apology and a 'there is nothing I can do'. We felt scammed. The trip that I have been really looking forward to has been ripped out of my hands in seconds. For no reason other than negligence on Andrei's behalf. If you choose to purchase this trip, I urge you to confirm with Andrei multiple times before the departure date, as he is not organized nor will he make attempts to ensure your money and booking will happen in the way that your ticket claims. Terribly disappointed.
