Klook: Travel, Hotels, Leisure 4+

Worked great in Japan

We traveled to Japan at the end of 2022 and used Klook extensively for buying tickets. We’d found that places like the DisneySea website didn’t accept U.S. credit cards but I was able to buy without problems via Klook. All the tickets we bought worked great. Klook was easy to use and find tickets to places we wanted to go. They should probably put the “my bookings” link on the front page but once you know where to find it you’re all set.

Overall review

I was not really satisfied with the tours. You know most tourists don’t speak Japanese so you should have an English speaking tour guide, at least. During our tour to Mt. Fuji, we were stucked in traffic going and coming back, and since the tour guide cannot speak English, everybody was sleeping in the bus. When we got to the location the tour guide did not even explain that it was the place for picture taking of Mt. Fuji, everybody thought we were just there to eat and we were expecting more, so some of us didn’t have the chance to take pictures.
The audio guide was a little helpful but it does not really explain well where we were. The day tour was fine but we did not really go to all the places that were described in the itinerary.
When I needed help and tried to call customer service, someone from a different time zone answered my call and was not really able to help at all. If you mean true customer service, you should have someone based locally to help and answer questions right away, and not someone who was on a different time zone telling me to wait because he was an hour behind from where he was.
Lastly, I sent an email 2 days ago, and still no reply up to this day.
Sorry Klook, but I will never use you again. I always travel and have always used travel agencies without any problems, you were recommended to me so I tried it, but I was really, really disappointed on how your team handled the tours.

User Beware

I travel often and try to use local apps. I came across this app on my recent travels to book a night time tour. We had a short layover on our way home and thought it would be nice to utilize the time wisely. The app showed the tour times, so I purchased the tickets. After waiting for over an hour, no tour ever showed up. I verified through the actual tour company’s website to see they offered the tour at a different time. We had missed it. I reached out to Klook asking for a refund and for them to change their tour times on the app. They told me they couldn’t issue a refund unless the tour company allowed it. After arguing back and forth with them, they eventually issued my refund. I left a one star review for the tour on the app. They asked if they could remove it. I told them they didn’t have my permission to do so. They did anyway. Their customer service is utterly atrocious. I have in writing and screen caps, so I have proof. They are a fraudulent company. If you choose to use them, beware!!! They show zero remorse for anything. Oh, and after sharing the correct tour times with them, they refuse to change the time.
