We missed our shuttle the first time around and were able to reschedule without any issues. (So be sure to call in and check to get the exact time you will be picked up from the hotel.) All the staff were very friendly and our pilot David was very entertaining. The plane-tour itself was awesome with incredible views. We would definitely recommend it! :)
