Thrifty Tours commented on this reviewHello Phil, Thank you for taking the time to write a review, your feedback is very important to us. I am delighted that you have enjoyed your overnight cruise in Doubtful Sound. This is a very special place to be. I am sorry to hear that you felt like the refund was inappropriate. Due to some flooding that happened during your trip, we have to cancel and refund this portion of the tour and our team has processed the funds back to the original method of payment used. I do hope that you had a great travel and I look forward to welcoming you in New Zealand in the near future. Thank you. - Chris4.0 - GoodWritten on August 11th, 2023Thrifty Tours commented on this reviewHi Chris, thank you so much for your feedback.
