    Excellent Informative Ft. Lauderdale Tour

    Brendan_R, May 2026
    Nice casual informative walking tour. Narrator keeps you informed and intrigued throughout this tour.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Thank you so much for your positive review about your Fort Lauderdale Riverwalk tour! We’re really glad to hear the narration kept you engaged and that the walk felt relaxed and informative. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and are happy it added something enjoyable to your visit.

    Tour takes at least 2+...

    Thomas_J, Mar 2026
    Tour takes at least 2+ hours; exact location of some sites is confusing; great way to learn the area; instructions to use site was VERY confusing. The elected tour time was accepted for my purchase; however, the tour wasn’t available until an hour later. For that reason, we were unable to finish the tour.

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    Thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed exploring the Riverwalk area - that’s exactly what our tours are designed for. 😊 Because this is a self‑guided experience, the time it takes can vary depending on walking pace and how long you choose to spend at each stop. The listed duration is an estimate. Just to clarify: the tour is available immediately after purchase, regardless of the “start time” selected on Viator. Those times are automatically generated by the platform and don’t affect when you can begin. Your confirmation email and text message included instant access and setup instructions, and our support team is always available if help is needed. We appreciate your comments and will continue refining our instructions for future guests.

    Do not recommend!

    Betty_K, Feb 2026
    There’s no place to park where you’re supposed to start the tour! We had to start at the Museum where there’s a garage. Why not tell people to start there? Also we paid for two and only needed one . We paid Viator AND an additional 12$ and Tripvia tours! Overall we felt we spent more than it was worth!

    Response from Host, Feb 2026

    Thank you for sharing your feedback. we're sorry the start of your walk felt inconvenient - the Riverwalk area can be busy at certain times, and many guests choose to begin near the Museum for easier access. We do appreciate you giving the tour a try, and your comments will help us continue improving the experience.

    Okay

    Mary_H, Feb 2026
    Would have been better had we known where the start point was.,so we wound up starting from half from the end and then retracing our steps. All to the beginning .

    Response from Host, Feb 2026

    Thank you for your feedback! We’re sorry for the confusion regarding the start point. While we provide a map and location details to help with navigation, we’ll look into how we can make these even clearer for future guests. We're glad you were able to enjoy the Riverwalk nonetheless and hope to see you again for a smoother start next time!"

    Good Walk. A little dated.

    Marina_P, Nov 2025
    Walk was good. We would have missed a few sights without the commentary. Needs to be updated. Buildings now completed and a water fountain no longer there. Good to fill in some time.

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts! We're glad the commentary helped highlight sights you might have missed - that’s exactly what we aim for. We also appreciate your note about the tour feeling a little dated. You're absolutely right: Fort Lauderdale keeps evolving, and we’re already working on updates to capture those changes as the city grows. Thanks again for joining us. We’re glad the tour added something to your day!

    Linking the past with the present.

    Norma_T, Nov 2025
    To be patient in listening & learning about the history of the landmarks. It’s also nice to go when there are other activities on the waterfront.

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    Thank you for your great review! We are delighted that you appreciated how the tour is "linking the past with the present" and that you enjoyed learning the history of the landmarks. Visiting when other waterfront activities are happening adds another layer of excitement to the area. We hope you'll choose another one of our tours on your next trip!

    Cheesy narrator

    Kim_T, Feb 2024
    The walk was ok it was the narrator of the tour that was way too cheesy for me. Nice area but I would have rather just walked and enjoyed the sights without the narration.

    Response from Host, Mar 2024

    Thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear that your experience with our walking audio tour did not meet your expectations. We value all feedback, positive or negative, as it helps us improve our tours.

    Lots of fun and interesting information

    Glenn_R, Jan 2024
    This self-guided audio tour requires the download of a free app and navigation through the app's menu and inputting a good from the reservation. But once that was all done, the audio tour worked great. The audio included a lot of fun and interesting historical and contextual information about the Fort Lauderdale North Riverwalk. The app's ability to use one's phone's location to begin the audio at each stop was a nice feature. We're glad we took this self-guided audio tour.

    Response from Host, Jan 2024

    Thanks for the wonderful review! Our goal is to provide insightful and interesting information about the history and culture of the area in an easy to use format.

    Super

    PIEDAD_C, May 2026
