Walter was very knowledgeable and the pace was perfect!
Thank you so much for your kind words and positive review. We are happy to read you had a great time! We hope that in the future you can discover another city with LocalBini as your travel partner!
Walter was our tour guide, and he was great! He was very knowledgeable, and was eager to share all he knew about the area. We appreciated his pace, allowing us to stop and take pictures everywhere. I do wish that the cost of the tour included the visit to the waterfalls, as we weren't expecting to have to pay out of pocket for that. The cost of that ticket also included entry into the Schwarzwaldmuseum, but because the tour ended away from there, we felt it was silly to backtrack and pay for parking again once we finished at the house of 1000 cuckoo clocks.
Thank you so much for your kind words and positive review. We are happy to read you had a great time! We hope that in the future you can discover another city with LocalBini as your travel partner!
Though our travel guide was very nice and informative about the area, I didn’t think the cost was equal to the experience. This hike was overpriced by at least 100euros per person.
I am sorry to hear that the your experience tdid not meet your expectations. We thrive for the highest possible quality and thus every feedback is valuable for us, the negative ones even more. We will do what we can for the service to be better on future Experiences!
Last January Cristian Madrigal was our guide he was very informative and always smiling he showed us a wonderful time in the rain forest I will definitely recommend him

So celebrating Kari’s birthday with the whales, has become a fun tradition, and today we did it with the whole family. We have been on so many fun and exciting tours and seen these animals do so many incredible things, we are a little spoiled. It is easy to have a perfect day on the water and come away feeling just mmmm satisfied, because we didn’t see anything amazing or special. Today was great, we saw more whales, I think, than any tour before. (I think this is about our fifteenth with Ocean Friendly Tours) but it wasn’t until the last fifteen minutes that this happened. (One of our top ten moments for sure) This is a humpback whale playing with dolphins. The dolphins will often play with the boats, ride in front of them and scoot under and around them, just to play. They do the same thing with whales. In this case, the whale, a somewhat younger male, is chasing the dolphins and rolling over, swimming on his back and waving at us with his flippers. Never really seen this so close before. It just fills your heart with joy!
Thank you for sharing your amazing experience with us. Sounds truly amazing. We suggest changing the experience you reviewed. There may be a small mismatch ;-)
Berthold our tour guide was amazing, he was very professional, respectful, fun and knowledgeable very much of the area. We were glad we had him as our tour guide. He took us through paths that I’m sure very few people know about and showed us really interesting places In Triberg. He was also patient and very friendly. I cannot thank him enough for the great time we had at Triberg. I would highly recommend him to anybody that’s looking for a nice hiking tour around Black Forest
Thank you so much for this nice feedback. We are glad to hear that you had a nice time discovering Black Forest with Berthold. We hope that in the future you can discover another city with LocalBini as your travel partner! Kind regards, Aleksandra
