Ich kann guru Walk nicht weiter empfehlen, da unser Führer nicht am vereinbarten Treffpunkt erschienen ist! Sehr ärgerlich, da wir unseren Tagesplan nach der Führung gerichtet haben. Ich habe schon viele free walking Tours auf der ganzen Welt gebucht, aber so etwas ist mir noch nicht passiert. Auch auf meine WhatsApp und meinen Anruf an den Guru habe ich keine Antwort erhalten! Guru Walk- nie wieder!!

Wir haben eine Tour gebucht und waren pünktlich dort. Leider ist auch 10 Minuten später niemand gekommen. Der Guru war auch telefonisch oder per Chat nicht erreichbar. Wir haben erst 2 Stunden danach eine Rückmeldung erhalten. Die Tour sei nicht angezeigt worden. Offenbar gab es technische oder sonstige Probleme. Für uns dennoch eine Enttäuschung.
