The organization of this trip could have been done with AI. We thought we were in a group, but it turned out to be all individual bookings. Some activities were a complete rip-off, like my canyoning trip where we ended up in brambles because there was no path. It was also dangerous and completely pointless. The vulture tour was also a scam. Luckily, the instructors for the actual activities were fantastic (canyoning, via ferrata, caving).
