Frequently asked questions
Expand

Can I customize the tour based on my needs?

Of course, that is one of the main benefits of having a Welcome experience. You can customize every last bit of the experience, from points of visit to time spent per landmark to adding in an extra food stop.

What happens after I book?

Once you complete your booking you will receive a confirmation email. Feel free to reach out to our customer service team at [email protected] for any specific questions regarding your booking.

What is the cancellation policy?

Any cancelation that is requested up to 24 hours prior to the operation time is entitled to a refund of 80%

In case of cancellation in less than 24 hours prior to the operation time or in case of no-show of the customer, you are not eligible for any form of refund.

Will there be an official tour guide?

An official tour guide is not included because the overall experience is centered around the driver and the local’s perspective. Although the drivers are very knowledgeable regarding the points of visit, at no point can they be compared with a licensed tour guide who can give more in depth information regarding historic facts and information. If you would like to include an official tour guide in the experience please let us know via email after the booking is completed.

Do I need to be in a good physical shape?

The drivers are trained to adapt the experience depending on the type of participants. Whether you have kids or elders participating, the drivers know exactly how to handle special requests and provide an enjoyable experience accordingly.

Good to know?

Please note that the Welcome Drivers are not licensed to be your official tour guide at the local attractions and therefore will not accompany you into the sites. You may, however, hire a professional tour guide at an extra cost.

Your Welcome Driver will provide you with their local knowledge and personal recommendations between stops. Since your safety is Welcome’s top priority, please refrain from distracting the driver during demanding driving conditions.

Your Welcome Driver will drop you off and pick you up as close as possible to your stop whilst always respecting local traffic laws.

Can I book a ride from the airport to the port (or vice versa) ?

Rides must start or end at your hotel or place of stay, we don’t offer direct rides between two transit points (like airport to port or airport to airport). However, if you need this type of route, the driver can extend the ride by +1 hour and you can pay through the app.

Can I bring my luggage with me?

Yes, you’re absolutely welcome to bring your luggage along during your experience. Just make sure to mention the number of suitcases in the notes section when booking. This helps us assign the right vehicle so everything fits comfortably and there are no issues on the day.

Useful tips

Summer Essentials

In the summer months, the sun is especially strong (even on cloudy days) so we recommend that you wear a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself. Also, be sure to drink enough water throughout the day to stay hydrated.

Local Currency

We recommend you always keep local currency on you (euro) as many local merchants do not accept cards as payment.
