Nicole_C, Jul 2025
Only about half of the time spent really showed us valuable things for our interests. It was nice to see some of the neighborhoods outside of tourist areas, but once we were shown, we could have gotten around on our own. Perhaps a shorter time would have been better.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Hello Nicole, We're sorry to hear that not all parts of the experience felt valuable for your specific interests. Had the pre-experience questionnaire been completed on time, we could have tailored the experience more effectively. Your insight is appreciated, and we take it seriously as we work to improve and tailor our experiences more effectively. Warm regards, Sheenah and the City Unscripted Team

All the main sites in Berlin!
