We entered our code (easy) and downloaded the tour (more difficult). Never found the round about to start the walking tour but we could hear the tour. We never found the sites until we took a shuttle to the city & we were directed to the Church of the Holy Trinity. Railway museum was closed. That's all. We want our money back.
Horrible operation

This app works terribly. It uses so much battery. Navigating between parts of the site was unmanageable. The map was useless.
Easy and convenient way to get a taste of the city

Although it took a while to figure out where exactly the starting point of the tour was, once it did start it was very straightforward how to proceed. There is plenty of commentary to keep you occupied so there is no worry about having long periods of silence between checkpoints. It would probably be best to visit during a weekday so that the markets and businesses you're supposed to pass by will have people so that will help highlight why it is a worthy point on the tour to stop and look at.
Very niceband rewarding

The multi-million-dollar yachts in the harbour. Besides that the tour was very entertaining and informative. The only problem we faced was that we could not start the tour when not being exactly at the starting spot. The start button was blocked until the distance to start was 0 meters. It did not work when the distance was 2 meters...
A beautiful village far from the crowds

After Athens and a few kilometers away I went for a stroll far from the crowds in this small, very intimate and charming village of Piraeus. Small streets and tranquility will charm you!

We have been to Athens many times with my family and decided to explore Piraeus instead this time. Loved the narrator’s stories and to discover a city which is usually not seen as everyone goes to Athens. We discovered many local spots of Piraeus which should be seen by everybody! Highly recommend!
Great experience!!

We were in Athens and decided to spend the day in Piraeus. We discovered a place full of caffès and tavernas. We like the narrator and her approach to show us the city.

Visited Piraeus ona Cruise and I have already visited Athens so I wanted to see what other to offer as a City. We had a great time with my husband learning about the city and Greece in general, Very nice stories the guide shares. We made some time to sit and drink coffee and eat something on the way. We did it at our own pace and that was so good!
