- KFKaren· February 17th, 2018The worst was the owner, although he tried to apologise his way out by lying to me that he could lose his job. In the owners house is one of the places for a "homestay". Where he sent the guests to sleep was downstairs, in a moldy room with no windows! The stench was horrible, and dangerous to occupants. I refused to sleep there, so he finally took me to another family that was wonderful. He told me that none of his family ever sleeps in there. He should be fined for putting people in such an unhealthy environment! Only 2 guides for the entire time, and one only spoke Spanish. Places seen were interesting, but since they use locals for transportation that service other tours, nothing was coordinated, nothing explained, some buses bad. Guy in the office walked us to the dock for boat excursion, but was not there to guide us back on return, and didn't tell us. I arrived back at the office with two others, but office was locked and nobody would open it. We waited 2 hours and the door opened; said he was there all along. At the last accommodation I stayed 2 days longer, and they tried to get me to pay a rate TWICE what the hotel signs said! Absolutely ridiculous, money grubbing snake of a company!Show moreTrip date: January 2018
