Scam don't book. Booked online though viator. Reached to confirm meeting location no response. Yo tours is a scam don't book there based in India.
From Prague to Brno, on the 2nd of March 2025 with Regiojet bus the trip was fine. Approaching Vienna the bus driver accelerated, causing travel sickness to my wife. At Vienna International Bus Station stop, after some passengers left, me and my wife got off the bus for some fresh air and in seconds we got on the bus again, but in the hurry her handbag fell outside the bus. She realized it immediately approaching her seat and in a second she went to the driver and asked him politely to stop, so that she would catch her handbag. The driver answered ''I don't speak English!'' turned his head and accelerated!!! I approached him also and asked him to stop. He showed to me his watch and said ''late''. My wife was in a shock, her handbag with her ID, cell phone etc was left only about 30 to 50 meters behind... The driver did not bother to ask another passenger to translate, in order to help us at this emergency situation! He did not respond as he should, ignored us, behaving in a completely inappropriate way! No other bus was behind and he could easily drive backwards.. At the Vienna airport the air company officer excluded the possibility to board without ID. Consequently we were obliged to stay two days in Vienna till the next flight to Greece and of course to buy new tickets, all this at a great cost of money and also at a great psychological suffering. Asking for compensation from the Regiojet company, the answer is negative till today!
The toilet was not working in the couch and there was big break (45 minutes) in the return which affected the return time. All the rest were very well organized
We were supposed to be picked up at our hotel in Vienna. It was confirmed by the tour operators, Yo Tours. At 7 a.m., we went and stood outside our hotel for over an hour. I tried calling twice (number was identified as calling India) and never got any results. I feel like I was scammed out of $340.00. Do not book anything with Yo Tours.
Dear guest, thanks for your feedback this is very strange, this never happens, we really apologise for the experience and your amount was duly refunded I could check.
You have to commit on the service details as the pick up from the hotel. It's bad to change your mind and obligates your client on last minute to go on the meeting point. Also to dropping off .. it's worst actually
Dear lily thanks for the feedback, please note than as a policy if your booking is less than 24 hours from the travel date we cannot provide hotel pickup, we took your confirmation as well, without confirmation we do not do plan anything. Your understanding and adherence to policy is appreciated.
The tour was great. The only reason I rated this low was viator themselves. Absolutely unprofessional service. They promised pickup from the hotel, but we had to go to the meeting point ourselves because nobody came! Although we booked the tour and entered the hotel a week before the tour, they never bothered mentioning that they wont pick us up. They are now ignoring my complaints on whatsapp! I advise to go on the same tour but with ‘getyourguide’, and not this through this horrible website and service
Fun and amazing trip with great tour guide (Darsha) and bus driver. Love the story telling and tips for instagramable spot. The organizer is very professional and responsive. They tried to contact me through multiple ways to ensure I'll be on boarded the next day. Thanks to the staffs.
Best Travel.....my family is also happy by this travel.....Puneet is very attentive on calls....very helpful
Dear guest thanks for your wonderful review we are glad you had a wonderful time with yo tours Vienna
