Feel cheated, victims of fraud, our day in Zurich ruined.wasted by

SHOBHA_K, Aug 2024

The tour was declined. We were cheated by being declined after being charged. In the next tour the booking was a tour in a car - paid CHF 348 for 2 pax and the operator sent was for a 2 and a half hour walking tour. No refunds being given.

Response from Host, Aug 2024

You were not cheated nor declined a tour. You booked a product that was and is a walking tour. And yet, for some reason you expected to be driven not only by a car but also a specific brand of a car... You came to the meeting point and decide yourself that you do not want to take a tour because there is no car (as there was not supposed to be any car). In response to your refund request we asked for proof of what hinted at this being a driving tour, you did not provide any. You paid a publicly known price for something and then expected something absolutely different. To add to id you have the guts to blame us for your mistakes. Shameful!

Zürich City Walk

Milton_E, Sep 2023

This was a great way to see the city by foot with a local guide. Ana was knowledgeable of much of the history of Zürich so she made the tour interesting while seeing both the modern day and the old town side of the river. Regrettably we did this tour on our last day. I recommend you book on your first or second day so you can go to some of her recommended places and restaurants.

Not a particularly informative tour

Pamela_K, Sep 2023

Our guide was quite kind and provided good communication leading up to the trip. However, I was underwhelmed by our tour especially given the price we paid. Our guide simply walked us around the city, but didn't really have much information to share. I had hoped to learn much more about the city, its history, etc. The main positive was that it did orient me to the city.

Response from Host, Sep 2023
