    Hello, On Saturday, February 15, 2025, I purchased 2x adult tickets for the Wawel Castle on February 16, 2025 at 1:00 PM in Polish with a guide named Roman Krnáč via the website. Booking ID: 23263362 The price of the tickets was PLN 220.98. However, the guide did not take us on the tour, saying that I should have received an email that the tickets were sold out, but no email came and the tickets were paid and confirmed. Please refund the money. Thank you.
