“Carlos our tour guide was very accommodating which was very much appreciated. But I must say he was also very unprofessional. While on tour he was texting and driving and even taking FaceTime calls during the cable car portion. Although it was I guess downtime I still didn’t think it was appropriate of him to take a FaceTime call to about nonchalant things you what he mentioned to us being his cousin on the other side of the phone. There is a time and place for those calls to be taken in my opinion and it was flat out unprofessional and not the time.”
