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!

Our three-hour walking tour with Craig was the perfect way to kick off our stay in Amsterdam. Craig was super friendly, entertaining, and a wealth of information. He gave us great insight into the history and culture of the City, as well as the layout. We now feel very well-equipped to continue exploring Amsterdam on our own. If you're visiting Amsterdam for the first time, we highly recommend this tour - and make sure you ask for Craig!

Erika tailored the experience to what we were interested in. Very enjoyable and personable approach.

We had been before and so had already ‘done’ the usual tours. We asked to see the more unusual sites.

Donald was a wonderful guide - so knowledgeable and shared great stories of the history and culture of Edinburgh. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour!

Mei was very knowledgeable and her suggestions were great. It was a great experience. She was able to adjust the tour accordingly.

We had a really lovely morning with Salvatore in Milan! We'd just arrived hours earlier and this was a good way to not only see some of the main sites in the city but also some maybe lesser known areas and tips that only a local would know. Additionally, Salvatore was so helpful in teaching us how to use the metro in Milan (we're used to the NY subway) and we ended up almost exclusively using the metro to get around during our entire stay in Milan. Super, super useful + helpful tour!

Wonderful tour experience over a 3 hour walking tour in Munich. Our guide Paola was excellent and very knowledgeable.

George was the most warm and engaging guide. It felt like we were meeting up with an old friend who had agreed to take us around the city. George’s knowledge of Athens was wonderful and we learnt so much. A true highlight of the trip.

Alex was awesome and super knowledgeable with a broad understanding of Mexican history. He told interesting stories and anecdotes about the statues, buildings, and locations we saw on our tour. Very accommodating and flexible to change routes or pivot to something our group felt more interested in. We covered a lot of ground in the two hours we spent with him but we didn’t feel rushed. Highly recommend!
