The trip was advertised for a start at 3:30PM but then told us that it’s actually at 2PM by WhatsApp in the morning. Driver set up the pick up appointment at 1:30PM and came at 2PM without giving us any news

The trip itself was good. We even got a shuttle from our hotel for free, which was great! But i have to mention that the busdriver forgot one passenger at the place where we had a break. He first realized it when we told him.. That really is not cool at all..
