Wasted a day of vacation and $280.

We then had to board a hot bus and waited 30 minutes before we took off with a different tour guide, Raymond. We rode ten minutes down the road to the ruins area where Raymond forbid our tour from buying food. We were all starving. Raymond talked for 30 minutes before we could explore the ruins. The we had to board the hot bus and wait another 30 minutes before we left back to the UTV park where we should pposed to have lunch but we were on a cruise and had to be back in port.
