DIsappointing guide and Expensive

judy_k, Oct 2024
The tour was disappointing . The guide was ill prepared. We went to the first brewery. It was closed and the guide had not checked to make sure it was open on that day of the week. Minimal experience with the brewing techniques and history.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Hello Judy, I’m truly sorry to hear about your experience and understand your frustration when plans don’t go as anticipated, especially with a closed brewery and a host who wasn’t fully prepared. This is not the level of service we strive to provide. I’m glad we could find a solution together and hope to earn your trust again in the near future. Warm regards, Kyle and the City Unscripted team.

Would not recommend

Maria_S, Jun 2024
I would recommend doing the group beer tour then the private . This was more of a tour of Brussels than a beer tour. We only tasted 3 beers and received no history Belgium beer , it was more a walking tour about Brussels and we were not looking for that.

Response from Host, Jun 2024

Hello Maria, I understand how the tour not meeting your expectations left you feeling disappointed and we’re sorry our host didn’t hit the brief. Your feedback is great, as it drives our commitment to enhancing our experiences. We're glad we could resolve this matter to your contentment and please know we're eager for a second chance to make your experience shine. Warm regards, Ruslan and the City Unscripted Team

Brussels tour

Andrea was our guide and he was very knowledgeable about the history and architecture of Brussels. We tasted a few Belgian beers and walked around the city center.

Five-star experience

Ivar_S, Jun 2021
The most interesting and educational beer tour I've ever participated. Strong recommandations from us!

Response from Host, Jul 2021

Hi Ivar_S I am glad to hear you had a pleasant beer experience with one of our Brussels hosts! Hopefully we’ll see you in the future in one of our other 60+ cities, so we can give you another 5* experience with a knowledgeable host. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you decide to book flights to one of our destinations. Kindest Liezel

11 Bottles of Beer On The Wall....

Shannon_K, Jun 2019
Mike was an amazing tour guide and by the end we had at least sipped 11 beers over the course of 3 hours and got better acquainted with the layout of the city. Best idea for the first full day of our trip (traveled from Netherlands first, this may not be good for first day on jetlag!). Mike also gave us plenty of other off the beaten path suggestions to visit as well. 10/10 would suggest, and having a private tour is a novelty in and of itself.

Response from Host, Jun 2019

Hi Shannon! I are thrilled to hear that Michael (and the beer!) helped you both through your jet-lag - I hope this made your birthday extra special and the City Unscripted team and I look forward to hosting you on your next adventure! Anna Kerekes COO and Co-founder City Unscripted
