Go Ask A Local Reviews 144

Primoz with go ask a local was wonderful. He clearly understood what I was looking for. I needed help with the logistics of a 2 week itinerary involving SUP, hiking, site seeing, wine, nature, casual atmosphere, locals,the sea and a we bit of time in Ljubljana. And....I asked for recommendations for places to stay. Kinda a lot but he was all over it. Kind, courteous and very helpful.

Chris was well prepared and gave us a wealth of information that helped us in our planning. He was very familiar with the areas we were interested in and gave us a variety of options for the amount of time we have for our trip. He included maps, itineraries, etc. His suggestions included a range of options.
Thank you Chris for being such a big help!

We wanted to make sure we spent our time in Tuscany seeing the unique places that weren't too busy with tourists. Serena was very knowledgeable and gave us some great recommendations. She was also helpful making sure we didn't waste time driving in the direction and gave us some great tips for restaurants and wineries. Hoping to grab a glass of wine with her when we visit! Thank you Serena!

Dania was wonderful to visit with. She brought enthusiasm and experience, was well prepared and efficient with our time. We’re looking forward to a follow up meeting as we continue to plan our family vacation.

Maria saved us so much time by listening to what we enjoy doing and helping us narrow down the places to visit in Argentina. She also gave great tips on getting around.

We scheduled a pre-trip consult with Nuno to help us plan our visit to Portugal. We submitted the questionnaire in advance, and his suggestions were tailored to our preferences. Nuno shared so much knowledge with us, and the entire outline of our trip has changed based on his suggestions. This is going to be so much better than what we could have planned on our own!

Paolo was excellent. Well prepared and friendly. Definitely worth investment

Paolo was fantastic in advising us on our upcoming Puglia trip! He studied the questionnaire that we completed before hand and had a very good idea of what we wanted to do. And he provided us with so many trip ideas, where to base ourselves, what sites are a "must" see, accommodations, info on parking, etc. He even provided us with a weather ap to watch the winds -- and gave insights what to visit or not given the winds. He is great! The experience was so worth the money and hour spent with Paolo.

Paolo was incredible. He was extremely well prepared and clearly reviewed our itinerary in advance. He asked smart, focused questions at the start and then offered specific recommendations rather than generic advice. He helped us prioritize locations, suggested realistic day trips, flagged what was and was not worth the time, and shared local tips we would not have found on our own. He also followed up with resources and links that made planning much easier after the call. The hour was efficient, personalized, and genuinely useful. Easily one of the best uses of an hour in our planning process and absolutely a five-star experience.

GoAskALocal's one hour consultation is the very best source of information in the travel industry. You will get more trustworthy info in this hour than in 40 hours of web research! Our consultant in Argentina was Maria C. She also toured us around Buenos Aires on our first day there. She is fantastic and went way beyond a tour guide. I will always consult GoAsk before planning a trip.

The process of finding a local tour guide to help with our Patagonia (Chile) itinerary was a game changer! Carola was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the entire region. She gave us so many great tips about transportation, restaurants, outdoor adventures and museums...and more. I would highly recommend using Go Ask A Local. The 1-hour consultation was worth every minute.

We had a great private tour with Dolça of La Sagrada Familia, Park Güell, and Casa Mila. It was not inexpensive, but Dolça was a friendly, engaging guide. She moved us through and between the sites efficiently and thoroughly, but with plenty of time to admire and appreciate Gaudí's work. She was also quite knowledgeable in many other areas we had questions about--different architectural sites, history, culture, politics, etc. We would certainly recommend her services.

We had a technical glitch (my end) on our first call but easily rescheduled. Second time worked well and Mattie was a great match for us. Easily understood our needs and desires and offered great suggestions and guidance. We hope to use her for a day trip during our visit.

Dania was great and provided wonderful ideas and suggestions for trip to Italy. She was great!!

Our last minute trip to Rome was incredible. Thank you for the valuable advise on itinerary and lodging. We were in a bind with no time to book and Manny jumped right in. Francesca was amazing and made our hour worth everything. I cannot suggest this service enough. I cannot wait for the next one.

Dania spent an hour with my husband and me, and we couldn't believe how much we covered! She is so knowledgeable - we covered 3 different areas in Italy, and she told us the best areas to stay without being inundated by tourists. She gave us hotel names, guide recommendations, restaurant suggestions, and fun, unusual activities. She helped us with car rental tips and train suggestions. And a few hours later, we had all of her suggestions in an email. Wow! Amazing what we got for 175 dollars!

We just completed two planning sessions, one with Primoz for Croatia, and the other with Paolo for Puglia. Both of these gentlemen were very well prepared and provided exactly the information we were looking for to help us plan out extended trip. It was clear in both instances that these guys were intimately familiar with their regions, and provided many suggestions that will go a long way to making our trips memorable. We very much appreciate their passion and insights.

Great experience working with a team in Chile. Exceeded my expectations on what a travel consultant could provide. I had to cancel my original meeting due to a scheduling conflict and they were able to get me in quickly with another expert. He was so helpful in creating an itinerary that worked with our time frame. We only have a week and there’s a lot to see and do in Chile. He helped create a fantastic itinerary, navigating so many details. Looking forward to our adventure!!

Primoz is a fantastic Slovenian travel consultant. His breadth of knowledge is terrific and he quickly matched out travel desires with a great itinerary. His enthusiasm truly spills over.

Chris was very persoanable, easy to speak with and very knowledgable. He gave me alot of great options and great explanation for my questions.
