“We got scammed!! Our ride never showed up. We asked every driver around, NO ONE had a reservation for us and NO ONE did 50 minute rides. There was no phone number or name provided, so we could not make contact. Viator was the only number that texted us and of course we could not call them. We lost $200 and had to pay for a 20 minute ride on site. I was provided a bar code from Viator and every driver said we do not scan those.”
