Unfortunately, not what expected! The guy arrived 30’ late. Came by car because went to the wrong place for pick up. The car was disgusting. Little tour of French quarter which we could do by ourselves. Showed us mainly restaurants (but didn’t stop at any)and hotels. He stopped immediately for a beer because, I quote “yesterday I partied too much and need a beer now” We walked through the French market while was getting the car again to move to a different district... not really a district as he stopped at every streetcar stops in order to catch the tram... impossible for 4 times (once he didn’t have the mask, then 3 more times he parked the car and had us run to catch the tram but it was always too late) When we finally did it, we stopped in a distraction where there was nothing to see or visit...3pm nothing to eat...but there was a brewery which apparently was more then enough to him. We caught the tram again to go back to...his car(pictures available) He brought us by car to the garden district...saw the garden from outside and back to the hotel (because at 5pm we had to be back) The tour was supposed to be a “walking” tour of 4hrs and as explained when booked, we wanted to experience local life, art and history I can say that nothing was covered besides finger pointing restaurants, hotels, art shops and ...his car His English level was unacceptable for guide (even a local guide) We are open minded people who traveled the world and had the most diverse experiences ... this one, not even close to experience local life

Response from Host

Hello Michaela, We apologize for the delay in responding to your review. I am sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your tour experience. It was a mistake on the part of the Lokafyer to take you along in a car since this is not what we offer. Rather than providing professional tour guide services, Lokafy allows travelers to connect with locals, and learn about the city from their perspective; things like what it's like to live there, advice on their favorite restaurants, and also connecting on a personal level. Our oversight here is apparent from your feedback. We would love to get in touch and resolve this matter. Please if possible contact us at [email protected]. Again, my sincerest apologies for the disappointing experience. I’ll be looking forward to your email. Safe Travels. Regards, Lokafy Team
