Fue una visita genial por todo el centro. Làstima del final, que nos llevaron a la tienda de telas para que comprásemos.... Pensábamos que con el tour no pasaría esto. Además, a la hora de acabar, el guía nos decía que le teníamos que pagar (por contrato) 500rup cada persona... Translate this opinion into English.

It was a great tour around the center. Too bad about the end, they took us to the fabric store so we could buy.... We thought that this would not happen with the tour. Also, when it was time to finish, the guide told us that we had to pay him (by contract) 500rup each person... Opinion translated. Show original.

Todo perfecto con nuestro guía Rishi en cuando al recorrido y explicaciones; aunque no nos gustó que al final del tour nos dijese que "como ya sabemos" en las condiciones al contratar el tour pone que cada persona tiene que dar un mínimo de 7 euros, cosa que no pone en la descripción de Civitatis, por lo que no lo hicimos. Esto también nos pasó en los demás freetours que reservamos en la India, por lo que Civitatis debería de hablar con la empresa local porque es desagradable que te presionen.

Muchas gracias por habernos dejado tu comentario. Se lo extendemos a nuestro equipo local para frenar este tipo de comportamientos.

El tour lo hicimos mi pareja y yo con otra persona. La chica muy maja pero no fue un buen tour. No nos explicó bien las cosas, no lo tenía muy preparado. Al pagar (que se supone que cada uno da lo que considera) nos dijo que el mínimo eran 500 rupias cada uno que en India eso es muchísimo.

Siempre trabajamos con guías profesionales que intentan hacer su trabajo de la mejor manera posible.

Rahul fue el mejor guía que hemos tenido hasta ahora en India. Nos hizo una bonita ruta por la ciudad vieja, explicándonos su historia y costumbres. También nos acompañó a probar algunos dulces típicos y tomamos un té. Muy recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

Rahul was the best guide we've had so far in India. He gave us a beautiful tour of the old city, explaining its history and customs. He also took us to try some traditional sweets and enjoy tea. Highly recommended. Opinion translated. Show original.

Nos encantó el tour con Rahul, tiene grandes conocimientos de Jodhpur, y la forma de transmitirlos al turista, con curiosidades y anécdotas hacen que el tour sea muy entretenido. Totalmente recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

10 min. antes de empezar me lo retrasaron a las 16. A las 16 llegué donde habíamos quedado y no había nadie. Hablé con el teléfono de contacto y me derivó a otra persona y esta a otra. Finalmente, al cabo de 40 min. llegó el guía que, en primer lugar, me dijo lo que debía pargarle. Seguido, me dijoque en aquel tour no iba a explicarme nada, solo llevarme hacia la “blue city”. Según él los monumentos ya estaban cerrados. Obviamente, no hice el tour.

10 minutes. Before starting, they delayed me at 4:00 p.m. At 4:00 p.m. I arrived where we had agreed to meet and there was no one there. I spoke with the contact telephone number and he referred me to another person and this one to another. Finally, after 40 min. The guide arrived who, in the first place, told me what I should pay him. Next, he told me that on that tour he was not going to explain anything to me, he would just take me to the “blue city”. According to him the monuments were already closed. Obviously, I didn't do the tour.

El proveedor local nos ha confirmado que hubo cierto desajuste logístico y por ello tuvieron que modificar la hora de inicio del tour. Nos ha dicho que el guía es un gran profesional y hasta ahora no había habido problemas. De igual modo, los responsables oportunos están informados y se tomarán medidas para corregir la situación. Translate this opinion into English.

The local supplier has confirmed to us that there was a certain logistical mismatch and therefore they had to modify the start time of the tour. He told us that the guide is a great professional and so far there had been no problems. Similarly, those responsible are informed and measures will be taken to correct the situation.

Una experiencia desastrosa. Al llegar el guía (Jay) nos dice que tenemos que pagar una propina de 500rp (6€) por persona. Le explicamos que le pagaremos lo que consideremos al terminar la actividad. Llama a su jefe y le dice que tenemos que pagar al menos 500rp. Al final decidimos aceptar pero nos arrepentimos enseguida pues el guía no nos explica nada de la historia de la ciudad sino que nos entra a las tiendas a pesar de haberle dicho que no queríamos.

A disastrous experience. Upon arrival the guide (Jay) tells us that we have to pay a tip of 500rp (€6) per person. We explain that we will pay you what we consider at the end of the activity. He calls his boss and tells him that we have to pay at least 500rp. In the end we decided to accept but we immediately regret it because the guide does not explain anything to us about the history of the city but instead enters the shops despite having told him that we did not want to.

Como se indica en nuestra página web, los free tours requieren un donativo al final del recorrido. En ocasiones, los guías pueden indicar una cantidad aproximada en base a lo que suelen aportar los clientes. Aun así, nunca deben exigir una cantidad concreta. Pedimos disculpas si fue así y haremos lo necesario para que no vuelva a suceder. Translate this opinion into English.

As indicated on our website, free tours require a donation at the end of the tour. Sometimes, the guides can indicate an approximate amount based on what the clients usually contribute. Even so, they should never demand a specific amount. We apologize if this happened and we will do what is necessary so that it does not happen again. Opinion translated. Show original.

I hace taken almost 20 different free walking tour and this was the WORST EXPERIENCE ever. He made us take a tuk tuk and charge us 4 times the normal price to get the blue city. Poor information. Just walk without any context. 1 of the 3 hours we spent in a clothing and fabrics store with people trying to sell us things without asking us. The worst thing was at the end where the guide was demanding to pay him 500 rupees per person. DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME

I travelled with my partner

Normally, this activity is done on foot. We understand that there was a misunderstanding and that the provider offered it to you in tuk-tuk paying a price for it. The guides of the free tours usually indicate what amount is customary to pay, but it is not mandatory to give a specific amount. We are sorry that the experience was not to your liking.

Our guide Vikram did not explain us so much of the city and did not give us too much information about it. He brought us to two shops, one of fabrics and another of spices where we are quite sure he might get commission out of it. At the end he wanted us to pay 500 rupees per person, which is a lot, he told us that this is the minimum, and he said that I got an email with the info. This was of course not true, all emails from civitatis were clear: free tour, our decision how much to pay.

I travelled with my partner

En el correo de confirmación de reserva te indicamos que un free tour es una visita guiada donde cada persona valora la labor del guía y, al finalizar el tour, paga el importe que considere a su voluntad. Los guías pueden decir qué cantidad es habitual pagar, pero no es obligatorio dar un montante concreto. Translate this opinion into English.

In the reservation confirmation email we indicate that a free tour is a guided tour where each person values the work of the guide and, at the end of the tour, pays the amount they consider to be at will. The guides can say what amount is usual to pay, but it is not mandatory to give a specific amount. Opinion translated. Show original.

Nuestro guía cambió la hora y el sitio de encuentro el dia de antes. No nos explicó nada y parecía como si no supiese por donde ir y que hacer! A la hora nos dice que habíamos llegado al lugar donde la guía terminaba sin haber pasado por ninguno de los puntos citados en la descripción. Y nosotros nos encontramos de noche en medio de los callejones de jodhpur sin guía y sin saber cómo volver a ningún punto principal de la ciudad. Si vuestro guía se presenta como Dewanshu Shutar no merece la pen

Sentimos mucho que no se cumpliera con lo establecido en el tour. El proveedor de la actividad nos ha informado de que no se había registrado ninguna incidencia de este tipo hasta ahora. Asimismo, nos confirma que va a investigar sobre esto y a poner las medidas necesarias para que no se vuelva a repetir este error.

Lamentamos que no haya sido posible localizar al guía en esta ocasión. Hemos comprobado que el guía también estuvo en el punto de encuentro a la hora indicada, pero tal y como os había solicitado previamente por email, necesitaba un número de teléfono para poder comunicarse contigo y así poder ubicaros mutuamente. Al no recibir respuesta no pudo contactarte y finalmente no pudisteis veros. Entendemos las molestias y sentimos mucho que por este motivo que no hayáis podido disfrutar de la visita. Translate this opinion into English.

We regret that it was not possible to locate the guide on this occasion. We have verified that the guide was also at the meeting point at the indicated time, but as he had previously requested by email, he needed a phone number to be able to communicate with you and thus be able to locate each other. As he did not receive an answer, he could not contact you and finally you could not see each other. We understand the inconvenience and we are very sorry that for this reason you have not been able to enjoy the visit. Opinion translated. Show original.
