MIGHTY SCAMMERS
Wow!
Just wow!
I've tried to connect and what do you think?
They stole my data, and listed me as a local tour guide!
And * according * to whatever , I never agreed with anything, I send rejected to everything, they will keep my profile for ever!!!
So yeah,
It's a scam!
They take your profile and make you a * local* to attract people who are genuinely interested in having a tour.
They steal your data and that's all.
I've reported this scam to Google, the all mighty censorship man, he seems to censorship everything, except scams!
seems like its a money grab and a…
seems like its a money grab and a conspiracy. I get the impression they are mostly fake accounts. they want as many people as they can to try it out so they can get a month or two of payments. its a novel idea. if they offered a refund option if you could not find a legit profile that would make it a more honest site.

App requires payment to contact someone. Even tho someone contact you to tour you they do not reply back. Feel scamed
The immature Showaround in Tunis
The Showaround in Tunis, Tunisia are immature 20 year olds looking to make a fast buck.
Turns out this app is 50/50 guides/…
Turns out this app is 50/50 guides/ escort.
But the company itself can't protect you or help you if you get into weird situation with the tourist. As a result you won't be able to find all bad reviews on tourists who are actually looking for escort instead of a guide. I stopped any inappropriate conversation direction from my tourist and didn't accept getting my money for the tour at his room. Obviously he cancelled the real architecture tour next day that was planned as there was not even slightest opportunity to have chilled evening in my company due to my alerted concern why he is not so interested in sight seeing ,but just wants to pay for hanging out. Be careful and use more trustworthy apps. Cause there are many weirdos out there. I was also afraid to leave a review as its too dangerous due to shared some data about yourself during the first hours of the tour while it was still a tour..this app does not protect you in any way. Only trust apps that actually verify profiles.
Local guides in Brazil
During a trip to Brazil, I got in touch with 4 locals: 1 was a good local guide for 1 day, 2 (1 girl and 1 boy) fixed a date in advance and the day of the expected meeting found an excuse not to come, 1 girl fixed a date and since then never replied to messages. I'm wondering if most of those people are pretending to offer guiding services but in reality offering something else.
Disgusting, this is NOT a tour guide site
Disgusting. This site promotes itself as a platform to find tour guides. When I tried to find a tour guide for a Brisbane trip, I was disgusted by the sexual offers. It's nothing but a trashy pick up site that anyone and I mean anyone can join as there is NO screening of members. Toursbylocals are now telling Trust Pilot my review is not legitimate. Toursbylocals cannot handle that they are dodgy. Daniell Novytarger and Aswan were my contacts. I am over their threats and false acusations! Bad enough I am lied to over and over, now they are threating me. Canadian thugs !
Scammers profile, unresponsible customer support
Well, despite the fact i used this app in many places i went (and delete it when i am not using it) i did not expected that kind of behavior. There was a scammer named Lejla from Sarajevo and her friend Adnan. They both work on showaround and gave themselves reviews to make their profile legit. On a rainy day i wanted to postpone the tour and that guide threatened me, telling me she will send friends to my location while i would not sit in a stranger car. I think it's normal and she started to call me by bad names just because I refuse to come to the place she wanted while I warned her in the morning that if it rains too much and not a little, I won't go. I responded to her criticism and she blocked me then she sended friends to harass me in whatsapp as she knew my number. One of her friend is that adnan. So i immediately report them both in showaround support and they did nothing to help me, claiming that my account is deleted. Right its deleted but you do nothing is someone threaten me, telling me they gonna find my location and that they would report me to the police. The customer support should have at least remove their profile or let my review appear but they did nothing.
Mixed feelings
I have used Showaound for two trips: Bucharest and, most recently, Vienna. I ended up meeting two really nice locals on both of my trips. HOWEVER, I have to warn you there's a good number of fake profiles and, more problematically, nonactive profiles. Each time, I reached out to about two dozen members, but only a few responded. You need a paid membership to contact locals. There's a chance that you do not hear from anyone after paying a very expensive membership. So, I don't think this website is a scam, but you may end up being cheated out of your money that way.
Fragwürdig
1. Service zur Plattform für einen Monat gebucht.Bekam im Folgemonat nochmals eine Abrechnung über 20,- EUR. Das ist kein Zufall. Auf meinen Reklamation gestern habe ich noch keinen Antworrt erhalten. Heute komme ich über das Internet nicht mehr auf die homepage...
2. In 3 von 5 Städten gleichwohl dutzende von Reiseführer angezeigt werden keinen aber auch keinen Nachricht erhalten. Für Madrid und Barcelona werden hunderte Reiseführer angeboten gerademal 5 haben geantwortet. In den letzten Tagen kamen dann noch Absagen wo ich mich frage von wem die kamen...
3. Plattform ist außerdem nicht Userfreundlich.
Many fake profiles and nobody responds
Many fake profiles are there and even after accepting the offer there is no response from the local guide.
I contacted several locals after taking subscription for one month but nobody responds.
I am disappointed with Showaround, it needs drastic changes
negative reviews are removed.
To my surprise i was cheated by a guide with only 5 star review. I post a 2 star review for the guide, but it was removed by showaround.
i don't consider a site who remove negative review as reliable.
I use Showaround as a guide and a tourist
I use Showaround both as a guide and a traveller.
It's a fantastic way to meet locals. In some cities there are no active people, but in others it's easy to find someone who will even give you tips for free.
Or professionally guide for a smaller or a bigger fee.
I just wish there were no creepy men who are looking for escorts :/ It's so clearly explained that the site is for tours!!!
A new way to experience a city
An unusual and interesting way to see a city thru the eyes of natives but be aware they will try to take money from your account regularly even though you only agree to 1 month, be aware!!

I work as local guide and personal shopper in Milan and I used also as traveler . I love this app of course it’s not fault of the app if there are bad people on it looking for a date or escort but u can recognize and avoid cause I just met people interested in a tour or genuine friendship .

There are many inactive accounts ,in many cities the inactive accounts are maybe 90% ,you get no answers.

Very surprised about the fast and excellent service. Found a guide at once and lot of offers. I understand that in some areas there are maybe too little offers, but by using it helps to develop the project. Wish them luck to develop further and find many new guides to offer.
This IS a dating app
Girls on this app need to accept that this is a dating app. I am paying the girls for a date, not for them to just walk and talk about random stuff. Some girls have profiles that insist that Showaround isn't a dating app - I actively avoid these profiles and refuse any offers I get from them.
