“I would give them ZERO stars if that is an option. The customer service is terrible and booking simple tours and transportation was very cumbersome and confusing. Getting a refund was even worse especially when dealing with the customer service reps who are note trained at all to work with customers. This business will not do well for very long sadly.”

“VANESSA the supervisor lied to me on multiple occasions. She is also RUDE and doesn’t take her job seriously. Her lack of regard for customer support and satisfaction is displayed through her tone of voice, ARROGANCE and Disrespect.”

“We took a Viator tour in Washington DC with our guide Daniel. The tour was great and Daniel was funny and very knowledgeable. The van was comfortable and clean. Thank you for an awesome day packed with history and silly jokes.”

“I booked a sunset boat tour with Viator and in the forecast it called for rain all day and it did rain all day in downtown Chicago, I canceled the 24hrs day before the trip and the would not refund my money and there policy clearly states that they would issue me a refund!!! This went on for days. I work hard for my money and I have family to support. They would NOT refund my money. I did not want to give even one start. Never got my refund. I will never book from VIATOR”

“I bought concert tickets to the Kursalon in Vienna for myself, my husband, my cousin and two dear friends. I went on the Tripadvisor/Viator site 2 days prior to our leaving for Europe and no cancelation of the event was noted. We made arrangements with the cruise director to have transportation to the concert although the rest of the cruise ship passengers were attending a separate concert that evening. We went to the Kursalon and struggled to find out if there really was a concert and whether we were in the right place or had the right door. When we were finally told there was no concert I was devastated for the others in my group. I had lead them to what I thought would be a better concert. This is unacceptable. You can’t sell tickets to an event that is not held and expect to have a business that survives.”

“In the description of our tour it was mentioned that the entry fees are included in the price, which was not true. It caused discomfort and a quarrel between us and the nice people who gave us the tour. As I'm far from being the only one who is complaining about the content of the offers - Watch out and take what is written with suspicion.”

“Booked scuba tour for next day, nothing in the main page mentioned anything about a certification required (hidden in more details). Tried to cancel within 5 minutes, no refunds. Contacted the local tour operator, they said no problem but to contract viator for refund. viator says no. Ended up charging back this amount.”

“I was absolutely impressed with the food tour of Athens. Irene was an amazing guide. She took us to the best out of the way places we would have never found on our own. It was a great mix of history, knowledge about the food and drink and wonderful humor. It was the highlight of our day in Athens. Thank you Irene.”

“Shame on you. "Bourbon Tour: Woodford, Buffalo Trace, Wild Turkey or Other" reads as if Woodford and Buffalo Trace are integral to the tour, and the third distillery could be Wild Turkey or another distillery. This is NOT the case. I would encourage Viator to reword the tour title to reflect transparency (e.g., Bourbon Tour: Three Iconic/Traditional Distilleries). Then list the potential distilleries, which include Woodford and Buffalo Trace.”

“After we waiting for the tour guide to show for our Beatles Tour in London, they never showed. We had not been looking at our home e-mail because of the cost of using our phones while in the UK. We later looked when we got to the hotel with free WI-Fi. Viator canceled on us the morning of this tour. Shame on them. Coming from the US to London, do they think we just book tours on a whim? We were so disapointed. We will not book with Viator again.”

“Awful customer service I have come across. Be careful with using Viator. They have lost me, and from the look of most of the other reviews, a lot of costumers. Make sure to spend your money elsewhere as these guys are stacking up a lot of money on services not delivered.”

“We booked a total of three trips with them, tried to cancel one well within the 24 hr period and they were absolutely terrible. One lady actually hung up on my wife. Finally said they would refund the trip but didn't! Terrible company...”

“Booked a trip with Viator to go whale watching and we let them know we had 2 wheelchair guests. Unfortunately, we drove around the area for 45 minutes but they had no handicapped parking available so we missed our boat. We called them immediately but they would not allow a refund.”

“Terrible service. It’s a scam which we paid a lot of money for - we turned up at uffizi gallery door 1 entrance and nobody was there for 30 minutes and when we contacted the operator they took 20 mins to reply. Really upset.”
