Maeve was AMAZING! She asked what was most appealing to us in order to ensure we had the best experience possible. When we shared that we were open to anything that was uniquely Australian, she catered our tour to bring in as much Australian history as could be compacted into a few hours. All the while, she was personable, funny, welcoming, knowledgeable, and engaging.

Ondrej delivered a very good city tour in Melbourne for our group. Unfortunately we only had one day to experience Melbourne from a cruise but Ondrej did a great job taking us to all the highlights and was very flexible on the itinerary. He was also a very good communicator both before and during the tour. IIhighly recommend Ondrej and City Unscripted.

あらかじめ情報を伝えていましたので、解説を交えてメルボルンの興味深いスポットを案内してもらい満足しました I had given you the information in advance, so I was satisfied that he guided me through interesting spots in Melbourne with commentary.
