We wanted this experience to be more. It felt more like a meandering walk with scattered facts and conversation (mostly about our guides interests and life) sprinkled in rather than a tour truly designed with us in mind. Definitely saw parts of the city that we probably wouldn't have seen on our own but just didn't feel like a special or tailored experience.

Hello Lauren,
Our goal is always to create fully personalized experiences that reflect each guest’s interests, so we’re sorry to learn that this didn’t come through in your case. Your comments about the balance of content and personalization are very helpful, and we will be sharing this with the team for review and improvement.
We’re glad to hear you were still able to see parts of the city you might not have explored on your own, but we understand your expectations for a more curated and focused experience. We truly appreciate your honest input and hope to have the opportunity to provide a more aligned experience in the future.
Warm regards,
Sheenah and the City Unscripted team
