    Horrible, tour guide doesnt even speak proper english, never again!

    Dear Tisha, We deeply appreciate your valuable insights. It is disheartening to know that certain facets of the tour did not meet your expectations. We want to emphasize that our overland journeys, as stated in our terms and conditions accessible on our website and detailed on TourRadar, consistently feature tour leaders (proficient in English) and, when specified, local guides. Given the diverse clientele of Europamundo, our groups may exhibit bilingual dynamics depending on passenger numbers. This entails service delivery in bilingual formats (typically English and Spanish), facilitated either by two tour leaders, each proficient in a respective language, or by a single leader adept in both languages. Rest assured, our guides possess a minimum B2 English certification (Upper intermediate) to ensure effective communication and engagement with passengers. Per the guidelines outlined in the voucher disseminated by your travel agency, any dissatisfaction with guide services warrants prompt communication through our 24/7 support channels (WhatsApp-Hotline). Regrettably, we did not receive any correspondence from your end to promptly address and resolve your concerns. Had we been informed in real-time, we could have swiftly rectified the situation by reassigning guides to ensure your utmost satisfaction. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience experienced due to this oversight. Once again, we extend our gratitude for your feedback, which serves our company for our ongoing quality enhancements efforts. Europamundo team
