点评:We booked a private tour during a cruise ship port call. Unfortunately the ship arrived in Punta Arenas a day early. We were unaware of the itinerary change and so was Far South Expeditions. But, the port was prepared for the ship's arrival and ALL of the other tour companies meeting passengers were aware of the change. FarSouth communicated with us only to say they could not accommodate us a day early and to confirm we still intended to take our 2nd Far South tour in Puerto Montt (which we did and were pleased with). Our request for an alternate tour in Santiago (where we had a week following the cruise) were met with silence. We continued to reach out to Far South who did not respond. Finally, two days before our trip ended, Far South said they would not refund our missed tour nor could they accommodate us for an alternate tour. Our last request was for a refund of half the amount we paid was ignored.
Far South was the only tour company in Punta Arenas unaware of the date change. Far South was the only tour (of 8) we booked with that required payment in advance. Far South ignored our repeated communications after the fact.
翻译:我们在游轮停靠港口时预订了私人行程。可惜的是,游轮提前一天抵达了蓬塔阿雷纳斯。我们和Far South Expeditions公司都不知道行程变更。不过,港口已经为游轮抵达做好了准备,其他所有接机的旅行社也都知道行程变更。FarSouth公司最终与我们沟通,表示无法提前一天安排我们,并确认我们仍打算参加蒙特港的第二次Far South行程(我们参加了,并且非常满意)。我们要求改期到圣地亚哥(游轮结束后,我们在那里待了一周),但遭到了拒绝。我们继续联系Far South公司,但他们没有回应。最终,在我们行程结束前两天,Far South公司表示不会退还我们错过的行程费用,也无法安排我们参加其他行程。我们最后一次要求退还一半的行程费用,但被无视了。
Far South公司是蓬塔阿雷纳斯唯一一家不知道日期变更的旅行社。我们预订的8个旅行团中,只有Far South旅行团需要提前付款。事后,Far South一直无视我们多次的沟通。
