We called we texted we arrived at the location tried to get all the information to do the activity and we did not receive a response from the vendor - we have used by Viator several times for tours like this and have requested a refund

City Grandma is a guided tour that is self paced. They sent me locations to go to, and once I arrived I texted them keywords. They then text me fun facts, things to do in the area, good eats, and Instagrammable spots. I like it because it goes on my schedule and my terms so I never feel too rushed or bored. I enjoyed taking it with my family and will definitely take future tours
