“The worst experience ever . we plan few days to visit Granada in Spain. We got a reservation for the Alhambra in Granada and guess what they send me a message the day before our visit that the tickets weren’t available because of overbooking. We spent a lot of money in hotels for absolutely nothing but Viator doesn’t care a bit . Do not use Viator ever they are no good .”

“All this company cares about is collecting your MONEY! Our entire family came down with Covid day before tour. Trip to Tn ended and all had to drive back home to Pa. Was truly looking forward to the tour planned and our vacation. Explained situation, result, we are keeping your $690. Thanks Viator! Never again!!!”

“We booked 3 tickets for Madrid Castle but could not find the tourer at the address indicated. We walked all around for 1 hr and no tourer. We could do the tour cause the barcode didn’t work either. When asked for a refund they refused to return our money. Will never use this company again!”

“We booked a tour of Rocky Mountain Park for a family reunion. We originally had a tour for 4 but more people wanted to go. The tour guide suggested we cancel the original and start over as we now had 8 people. My sister had started the plan so she was refunded for the original reservation. I started over and reserved the tour for 8 people when they flew into Denver. Unfortunately, that was the July power crisis and more than half our group were stranded in airports in New York and California as we waited to pick them up in Denver. By that afternoon we knew that the trip was ruined. I called Viator to cancel. I asked for a refund and was refused the refund because we called one hour after the 24 hour limit. I explained that the power loss had stranded thousands of people and no one knew they were stranded until after the plane should have departed. The phone person at Viator said no. I tried to email customer service but the email bounced back. I tried to write a letter but the online address was incorrect. I lost $1,200. I am 76 years old living on Social Security. This was special money saved for a trip that collapsed and I cannot find a way to reach them.”

“I just buy their tour package to Grand Palace Bangkok, Thailand, in Agoda. They don't write if the package not included a entry ticket. So when in Grand Palace, they ask us to pay the entry ticket by ourselves. It's like a SCAM us to buy their tour package in App, but we don't get what they write in App. Zonk!!! Not recommended!”

“This company is basically a scam and should be avoided at all costs. We didn't get the tour we promised and instead of fixing their mistake they keep referring to policies that don't apply to us.”

“Title: Extremely Unprofessional – Refund Denied Despite Valid Medical Reason I have been a loyal customer of Viator for many years, booking numerous trips and excursions through their platform. However, my recent experience has been incredibly disappointing. I had to cancel a dinner cruise due to illness and was asked to provide a doctor’s note to process a refund. Once I submitted the note, Viator still denied my refund. I reached out to the excursion company directly, and they referred me back to Viator. After waiting two weeks, I received an email denying the refund, despite my valid medical reason and all requested documentation. The lack of communication and professionalism in handling this situation has been shocking, and it's clear that Viator does not prioritize customer care or loyalty. I will not be booking with Viator again and would advise others to be cautious when dealing with their refund process. This experience has been frustrating, and I will be taking my business elsewhere.”

“We booked a full day tour of D-Day landing beaches with Viator. The tour left from Bayeux. Eight of us plus the driver were crammed into the van, three across. It was very uncomfortable. Our driver/guide was pleasant but we had trouble understanding her accented English. We stopped for lunch and didn’t get individual bills for our orders. She called off our order at the register. Somehow I ended up paying 57 Euros for a salad and ham and cheese sandwich with coffee. We should have saved almost $300 and driven ourselves.”

“I gave 1 start because I can’t give zero. DO NOT USE THEM. I booked an Italy colloseum tour and their app took us to the wrong meeting point, and we missed our tour and ruined our trip. I told them what happened and they would not refund! The viator app and team are complete rubbish and won’t give your money back. We came from australia to do this and they ruined our entire trip. SCAM.”

“We were able to get our tickets both times, but the process of getting them was an absolute nightmare that left us both exhausted. Why they simply didn’t email us the tickets is a mystery. We won’t be using them again.”
