“Intet at udsætte på tourguide, fin tur. Men jeg bookede turen til kl. 9.00 med start på den angivne adresse, fik bekræftelse dagen før, men fik samtidig en mail fra en lokal person, der angav, at adressen var en anden og tidspunktet flyttet til en time senere. Forvirrende! Tourguiden fortalte, at startadressen var ændret for mere end et år siden. Bedes venligst rettet”
