We had a wonderful time during our sightseeing tour with Naeem. I was able to communicate with him prior to our trip in order to plan our trip seeing the sights we wanted to see. Naeem was very patient when my in-laws decided to change our plans mid-day. He was extremely knowledgeable of the city and made suggestions about things to do after our tour. We highly recommend using this service and would ask for Naeem if you are able. He made the trip for my in-laws stress free and extremely enjoyable.
We had the privilege of having Alexandru SERDARU as our guide and driver for a full-day tour of Barcelona, and he exceeded every expectation. From the moment we met him, his warmth and friendliness put us completely at ease. His knowledge of the city’s history, culture, and hidden gems was remarkable, and he shared it in a way that was both engaging and easy to follow. What impressed us most was his thoughtfulness and attention to detail, ensuring we were comfortable throughout. Alex’s professionalism and positive attitude made this one of our best travel experiences, and we wish him every success.
The driver was on time and had plenty of suggestions for our itinerary. He was knowledgeable about the city and helped us organize our tour so we could make the most of or day. Highlights included the Miro and Picasso museum exhibits, Gothic quarter and Ramblas, the Cathedral, Temple of Agustus, Casa Batllo, the Maritime Museum and Sagrada Família. We had plenty of time to do the museums on our own and he was always waiting for us outside when we were ready to move on. He also had great suggestions for dining, and delivered us back to our hotel.
ZERO CUSTOMER SERVICE! It has a nice website and very easy to make a booking but then you are on your own! There is no way to contact welcome pickups after you make a booking! No way to modify a pickup you have planned. if you try, it gives you a 2nd booking at the new time and you have no way to cancel. There is no way to do anything but try to call the drivers they have assigned and work it out directly with them. And you are charged 20% for canceling the duplicate or wrong booking even a week beforehand. The "contact customer support" option goes to a FAQ page that sends you round & round to nowhere. Nice drivers, not their fault. But you feel trapped by this company. BE CAREFUL making a booking- there's no way out!
Hi there! We're sorry to hear about your experience. This is not the level of service we wish you'd experience with Welcome. We'd appreciate the chance to investigate this further. Please contact us at hello@welcomepickups.com with your booking details, and our Complaints team will look into the issue and work towards a resolution. Thank you for sharing your feedback and for bringing this to our attention.
Syed was a great guide. I saw all the places I was interested in. We stopped at a great tapas restaurant.
