Overall great experience, love the old-school Volkswagen van. Tour was amazing! There was a little hiccup when it came to seating the driver question rather if I should sit in the front and insisted on me asking two ladies that showed up late! if they wanted to sit there when I was on time and the only solo person there. I felt unwanted but brushed it off and went on with the tour. A must do for solo travelers.

Excellent Tour Guide , very informative! Appreciated all the suggestions. I wish the bus had a bathroom , that we had more white wine options during the tour and that we were told that we would be outdoors. A lot of us in the group thought we would wine taste indoors even with Covid. Lastly, it would have been nice to spend more time at Castello di Amorosa to take it all in more since it was the best attraction of the day. Would still recommend. Thank you Randall !!

We booked this private tour with Cardinal Transportation via Viator (Trip Advisor). We were told the SUV was sold out but the sedan was still available. Within 15 minutes of paying $399.50 and receiving email confirmation for our pick up at 9 am the next morning, I received a text message from an unknown number stating that they would not be able to service the tour for at least 48 hours. When I informed this person that would not work for us as we were leaving town in 48 hours the reply was "I'll see what I can do." I never heard back from this person again despite several text messages. I tried calling the phone but the voice mailbox was full and could not accept messages. I called the main phone number for Cardinal Transportation and left a message but never received any call back. A simple "Sorry we can't do it" would have been suffice but to not answer when the pick up time for the tour is within 12 hours is completely unacceptable. We (the customers) were stuck in the middle of your miscommunication with the third party booking agent ( Viator). If you could not accommodate us you should have told Viator that the tour was sold out and take it down from the website. Or perhaps a novel idea...answer someone's text message or phone call. This is terrible customer service. Upon reading other reviews about Cardinal Transportation, this seems to be their modus operandi. I would never recommend this company to anyone.
