  • Très mauvaise expérience ! Le guide soi disant français ne savait même pas aligné une phrase !!! Discours inaudible tout le long de la journée, et le pire au début de l'excursion il avoué qu'il maitrisait très mal le français. Visite au pas de course et impossible de voir quoique ce soit ! C'est honteux et malhonnête à vous de vendre ce type d'excursion. Je recommande vraiment pas !!!!!!

    Response from Ceetiz
    Bonjour Ouafaa,

    Nous sommes navrés que vous ne soyez pas satisfaite de votre visite.

    Cette activité est très appréciée de nos clients et ainsi que le guide ayant assuré votre visite.
    Cette activité est très dense car elle permet de découvrir Washington DC en une journée.
    De plus, le jour de votre visite, le groupe français était plus petit que le groupe principal et se trouvait à l'avant du véhicule, à côté du guide qui leur accordait une attention particulière.

    Nous avons bien fait remonter votre commentaire à notre prestataire.

    L'équipe Ceetiz.
