“Terrible. Location isn’t correct on the map which caused me to miss the tour. And they wouldn’t even give me a refund after I proved the location was incorrect.

Anne Frank Tour in Amsterdam, a small English guided walk near Dam Square, focused on WWII context outside the House.
“The most memorable experience of this tour is that when we went to the meeting place at the schedule time to meet our tour guide and he is nowhere to be found. We were able to locate other tour guide of another company at the location, they were helpful to make some calls and found out that the tour was cancelled. We did not receive and emails or phone call on this and were totally disappointed. This horrible experience will remain in our mind and we will never book any tour with Viator again!”
