      Monet Magic!
      Excellent tour, well informed! We enjoyed our time and our guide very much. The grounds were amazing and being able to skip the line was essential in a crowded day.

      Toulouse food tour
      Alex, our guide, was excellent. I wish we had done this earlier on our trip to Toulouse. We know a lot about the local foods and neighborhoods but much about the history and the people in the area.

      Worst tour ever — do not book it!
      I recommend no one book this tour! My husband paid $400 for this private 3-hour tour of Strasbourg (through Viator), and not was it only the worst tour we’ve ever been on (and we’ve gone on many) — it was so bad, we cut it short to save ourselves the torture (which we’ve never done before). And the tour guide told Viator we never showed up, so we couldn’t dispute the cost?! First, our tour guide was 15 minutes late. We were trying to figure out how to call him or contact him through the parent company, but to no avail. We almost left — but finally someone showed up. It was NOT the Yves (tour guide who had been previously BEEN listed for this. My guess is the original tour guide decided to do a bigger instead (for more tips) — and sent this poor guy to fill in for him on a tour he didn’t want to do. The guide was very nice, and I feel bad, because it’s not his fault he was thrown into this — but he was not prepared. He barely spoke English, barely knew any history, barely spoke to us, kept checking his phone, and seemed uncomfortable with the whole thing. We walked/stood in silence 95% of the time while he didn’t know what to say. He didn’t really understand our questions, nor know the answers. My husband was telling more about history to him than the other way around. After an hour of this, as we stood on the Bridge of Torture — which we learned more about from the plaque next to it than our guide — lest we throw ourselves off the bridge like in times of old, we I decided to end our torture early for both our guide and us and cut the tour short. I’d rather use Wikipedia to look things up as we walk. It’ll be more informative.

      The in-depth knowledge we needed to apprehend Saint-Malo
      The experience we were looking for was delivered by our amazing guide Yzabel, who took us on an historical walking tour of Saint-Malo, mostly outside the most crowded streets. The weather was ideal and we had a very nice and casual exchange about the history of the city and french history around the 17th and 18th centuries. That kind of tour is perfect if you already know the basics about Saint-Malo, Surcouf, Duguay-Trouin and Jacques Cartier and still want to see the best views around the walls and fortifications designed by Vauban through Siméon Garangeau.

      Our tour of Arles was excellent ! Michael was a very knowledgeable and interesting guide. The weather was very windy and cold but he was always smiling and enthusiastic. Well worth the cost to see the major sites of Arles in 2 hours. I highly recommend his tour !

      LOUVRE VISIT FIASCO
      We had booked Louvre visit on our weekend away at Paris. Turned up at meeting point to find no representative from City Wonder's Ltd (booked through GetYourGuide) and were left wandering about for 20 minutes until we spotted a lady talking to a number of tourists. She informed us that she had been sent by the Company to tell us our tour was cancelled and a refund would be given. Very disappointed and annoyed with them as she had also stated that emails had been sent to inform us of cancellation (no email was received). Customer service appalling - will not be booking with them again - at present time still chasing up refund.

      La Rochelle Tour
      Our guide made sure she found us to give the tour as her instructions on where to meet were different from ours. She stayed around until we found each other. Gave a wonderful tour to fit our schedule and La Rochelle is a great town.
