Victoria Whale Watch Tour
Tour / Activity
Location: Victoria, Canada
My Review: We arrived at the office on time for the company to tell us that the boat was fully booked and we would be transferred to another. I had booked this particular tour because of the size of the boat used and what we would expect during the trip. WHAT A JOKE!. We were transferred to something no bigger than a TUG BOAT! 33 people where on this boat, so much that not everybody could sit down. We accept that the weather on that day was not good, but did expect too be able to sit down in safety. The arrangement of this trip by Viator was good and not a problem. We advise to all if you are told that you are being transferred to another boat ask why! We booked this months previous in advance and was disappointed, yes there were whales (in the distance). There are numerous companys on Victoria Harbour offering whale watching. In all this boat we were on ruined the trip, you had to hold on for dear life as it was very choppy. We feel that if the original boat had been used for the trip it would have been more enjoyable (despite the weather) By the way we did not see any boats equivalant in size to the one we originally booked out there whale watching only zodiac boats doing the trip, these boats remained in the harbour tied up!!!!

Skip the Line: Buckingham Palace Tour
Tour / Activity
Location: London, United Kingdom
My Review: I enjoyed the tour very much, very glad that booked online for this tour! You still need to pick up tickets from the Ticket office as its a 'ticket voucher' you print online. Yes there was a queue to get these but I waited no more than 10 minutes. From this queue you can see the queue for tickets on the day and THAT was a looooonng queue. Well done and would definately use again. When tour is over the only downside is the exit on the far side of the garden and its a big garden!!!, you then have to walk all the way round to the front again. Be prepared for that! I did see golf carts and I guess these were for people who had walking difficulties.
