“It was great and very informative. Guide was very knowledgeable. Good stops. Only probe have was we were there way before pickup and the bus was actually there but the was no sign (no JAT or any indication). The tour operator/guide had the sign with him, which we did not see. He probably wasn't holding it up whenever we looked his way. Text communication was efficient and they called us back quick. Just don't want to be that person others will be waiting for. We were 8 min late with the bus few feet behind us. The bus could have the sign! Otherwise, great tour.”

“We were told that we would be getting off the bus for seven stops. This didn’t happen only time we got off the bus was for the Berlin Wall, bathroom break and an expensive lunch that we paid for which took almost 2 hours. The tour itinerary was not as listed. Every one was very disappointed. I’m hoping that Viator will be compensating for the tour which didn’t happen as they said it would.. I have used Viator for many of my trips and have recommended them to friends. As of now I feel I can’t do that.”
