I liked everything a lot. I loved the village house. We enjoyed the whole time, very grateful to Mr. Angel, our guide, who was very kind and attentive to us. I would do it again.
Nos encanta saber que disfrutaron cada momento de esta experiencia! 😊 Gracias por elegir nuestra excursión a Washington D.C. y Filadelfia desde Nueva York y por destacar la visita a The People’s House, una experiencia que hemos incorporado para hacer el recorrido aún más especial. 🏛️🇺🇸 Nos alegra muchísimo que Ángel estuviera siempre atento y les brindara un excelente servicio. ¡Será un placer recibirlos nuevamente en Real’s Tours NYC para otra aventura!
We had a very disappointing experience with one of the agents from REAL'S TOURS NYC INC. His name is Javier. We booked the Washington, D.C. and Philadelphia tour, and our confirmed meeting time was 6:00 a.m. Since we were traveling as a family with our 9-year-old child, we planned everything carefully. We went to bed at 9:00 p.m. the night before so we could get enough rest. The next morning, my wife woke up at 4:00 a.m., I woke up at 4:30 a.m., and our child woke up at 5:00 a.m. At 5:10 a.m., just before leaving for the meeting point, we checked our phone and were shocked to see a message saying the meeting time had been changed from 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. The message had been sent at 10:00 p.m. the previous night—after we had already gone to sleep. We immediately called Javier, expecting some understanding or assistance. Instead, his attitude was extremely rude. He repeatedly insisted that we had received the message, and we explained that although the message had been delivered, we were asleep and didn't see it until 5:10 a.m. We also told him that before going to bed, we had called Viator to confirm the original meeting time and location. His response was simply, "OK, go and call your Viator," in a very dismissive and unprofessional tone. As a result, we had to reschedule everything. Our plans were disrupted, our sleep was affected, and the entire experience caused unnecessary stress for our family. If Javier is the agent handling your tour, I would strongly recommend being cautious. Our issue was not just the last-minute schedule change—it was the lack of professionalism, empathy, and customer service in the way we were treated.
Tours with Ivan, excellent guide highly recommended, was very entertaining, gave us a lot of historical data, allowing us to better understand the sites we visited, note to the guide 10 of 10. Point to improve the convenience of transportation. Greetings from Mauritius and Haydee from Chile.
