“Loved loved our tour guide. But when I made reservations it included roses and champagne. He did not have that. I spoke to someone before hand regarding the ride and told them it was not a proposal but I did want the roses and champagne. I was appreciative that Luis went out to get it, but would’ve preferred it be there before hand and to receive actual roses. We got flowers but not roses”
