The shuttle didn’t get us back in time for the departure at 12:30pm. How are we suppose to know island time meant? It’s a small Avalon island, I’m not understanding why it takes 40mins to return back and fourth when it was less then 8min drive down to the main station?
As the shuttle suppose to get us there by 12:15p by the pier. We would’ve made this tour!
We got there 12:25 after running from drop off point where we didn’t know driver would drop us off further from the pier. Because we were told the shuttle will drop us off where we want to, which was another lie. They told us the boat docked at 12:30, which is a lie, because we got there in line 12:25pm the boat was at no site!
Secondly, Standing in activity line for 10 to 15 min… we got stamped on our ticket to be stand by, afterwards at 1:15pm stood in line to try again, but no room was available, the driver said. So I can’t rate the ride!!
Then gave the tickets up and lost my money.
First time on the island and after a long time taking a small vacation. Was super exited getting there and now I and the teens really upset and wanted to go home. No, I can’t rate this tour.
Good times...

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
