Desafortunadamete por causas de fuerza mayor no pudimos hacer este tour pero siempre hubo atención de su parte. Estuvieron en contacto conmigo desde dias antes del tour y cuando les comenté que finalmente no nos sería posible llegar a Mahahual, accedieron sin ninguna traba a hacer el reembolso de los tours que ya habíamos pagado.
Su atención siempre fue muy puntual y cortés. No dudo que en los tours sea igual 🙂
