I had the most wonderful experience in Madrid, all thanks to Pedro! From the very beginning, he was incredibly helpful with the pre-tour planning and went above and beyond to accommodate our requests and preferences. Pedro has a remarkable ability to bring Madrid's history to life, seamlessly blending fascinating historical insights with his extensive knowledge of architecture. He was engaging, personable, funny, and an excellent communicator throughout the tour, making the experience both informative and enjoyable. His passion for the city was evident in every aspect of the walk. To top it all off, Pedro surprised us at the end with some delicious local treats, which was such a thoughtful and memorable touch. This was truly one of the highlights of our visit to Madrid, and we cannot recommend Pedro highly enough. If you're looking for an authentic, insightful, and enjoyable experience, look no further!

Jorge's private, custom walking tour of Oaxaca city center for our group of three was amazing. He tailored the experience to our interests and it was exceptionally informative. Jorge brought so much of his interesting personal history and family background to the conversation. He also offered expert guidance on other things to do in Oaxaca. I would recommend Jorge specifically and City Unscripted in general to anyone looking for a great introduction and orientation to the city. Thank you Jorge!

Darren was an absolute joy. He was so knowledgeable of the Manchester music scene and took us to all the places on my bucket list. His anecdotes were very entertaining as was his understanding of the city’s history. I feel like we made a new friend.

We had the absolute pleasure of having GJ, Won Jee Eun as our tour guide in Seoul today, and she was truly outstanding. From the moment the tour began, she was warm, professional, incredibly patient, and genuinely passionate about sharing her knowledge. Her English was excellent, making every explanation clear and easy to understand. She took the time to answer every question thoroughly and never made anyone feel rushed, which made the entire experience relaxed, enjoyable, and engaging. She was also very attentive to our well-being, especially on a very warm day, regularly checking in to make sure everyone was comfortable and hydrated, and thoughtfully giving us little breaks in between so we could rest and not feel tired or exhausted. What really made the day special was the way she brought Korea to life. She didn’t just show us the sights; she shared the country’s fascinating history, traditions, customs, and local culture in such an interesting and memorable way that we learned far more than we ever expected. Her enthusiasm and storytelling kept us captivated throughout the tour, and the well-timed pauses and breaks she included made it easy for us to fully enjoy each experience without feeling overwhelmed. Without a doubt, she is one of the very best tour guides we have ever had anywhere in the world, and we would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Seoul. She is a real credit to your company, and we are extremely grateful for such an unforgettable experience.

We had one day in Amsterdam. With only one day to make pedestrian footprint we did not want to walk around aimlessly lost. This is where our guide Alan came in. Alan became part of our unforgettable Amsterdam experience. Our footprint requested of some thrift stores, cheese store and as many miles as possible. Alan started taking us by train to the markets walking our way back to our starting point by weaving in and out of all the side streets, the pretty streets, the roads less traveled, all while site seeing spontaneously. For example, at the thrift store a high pair of shoes were selling for 15 Euros. On our journey back we stopped at the brand-name shoe store and found the vary same pair of shoes priced at $250. Alan showed us the square memorials plaques in front homes where Jews had one lived before they were killed in World War ll. I was later able to share this fact at the Anne Frank Museum. When we needed to use the toilet , Alan found the cleanest and fanciest places. He new when to hurry us along and when we wanted to hang a bit longer. We moved around, did and learned a lot. Alan pointed out other places to visit with directions. Genuinely, we had a better time in Amsterdam with Alan as our guide!

I booked a 4-hour private tour with Dennis for my aunt and me, and it was one of the highlights of our trip to Hong Kong! Dennis is incredibly fun, vibrant, and deep with local knowledge. Beyond showing us the iconic sights, he guided us to fantastic hidden spots away from the usual crowds. He has a brilliant eye for photography and helped us capture so many fun, natural candid photos that my aunt and I will cherish forever. His warm personality made the entire four hours feel like exploring the city with an old friend. I will definitely be booking another tour with Dennis the next time I visit Hong Kong. Highly recommended!

I did a four-hour private tour with Donald, and he was absolutely amazing! He was incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely went above and beyond to make sure I was able to experience everything I wanted to do in Hong Kong. Donald shared so many crazy, fascinating historical facts about the area that made the tour even more interesting. He was also flexible, helpful, and truly made the experience feel personalized rather than like a typical tour. If you’re looking for a private guide who is knowledgeable, attentive, and willing to go the extra mile, I highly recommend booking with Donald! He made my time in Hong Kong unforgettable!

Lilia was very informative, she had a very wide knowledge base. She gave us info on many historical people like Sir Walter Scott, Robert Louis Stevenson & Robert Burns. We couldn't recall the names very well ourselves but I think we still got an "A". She may have helped us get the answers.
