Cancelled Less Than 24 Hours Prior With No Alternate Options Offered

When researching manatee attractions in the area, this company's offer of 4 hours on 2 6-person house boats for $450 (including lunch and snorkeling equipment) sounded too good to be true. Turns out it was because they cancelled on us 20 hours before our tour....More
