I highly recommend this private walking tour. It was educative and fun, exploring Gothenburg and sampling some local cuisine with a knowledgeable guide. It was a memorable experience in one of Sweden’s most charming cities.
Thank you for your kind words! We're delighted you enjoyed our walking tour of Gothenburg. We strive to offer enriching experiences and are thrilled to have made your visit memorable.
This is a terrible tour. The cost is outrageous for this 2 hr tour. First this is not the fault of our guide. She was wonderful and did what she was told to do. The tour is just a walk about through a large city, with zero stops in parks, gardens, historical monuments, coffee shops, ect.. The drop off point is NOT the starting point as advertised. It is a few miles away and we had to take a tram back which was also a disaster as we had no ticket and it would only take 1 charge card per person, my wife had no card. The guide had no idea she was to take us back but she did when I showed her the print out. DO NOT SPEND YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON THIS TOUR. IT IS TERRIBLY OVERPRICED.
I'm sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with your recent tour. I understand that you felt it was overpriced, and I want to take this opportunity to address your concerns. Our guide was instructed very well on what to do during the tour and where to end the tour. The tour is entirely walking, and it is not ideally that you opt to take the tram. I want to assure you that I value your feedback. We always looking for ways to improve our tours, and your feedback will help me to do that. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with me.
