4.00It is clear and easy to follow. It includes information and stories to make the way more interesting. I used it throughout 2 days so as to stop along the way whenever I felt like it.

4.00Liked being able to follow the tour at our own pace. Information shared was interesting and informative. Only negative is that the Inverness castle is closed until 2025 but the audio hasn’t been updated. We worked around it but since the castle has been closed since 2021 it could have been updated.
Useful introduction to Inverness

4.00Very diversified information provided, very useful to be introduced to Inverness. One single regret: while the castle is still under restoration hence not accessible, the audioguide was not updated accordingly.

5.00It was easy to follow at your own pace. We split the tour up and it did not feel rude to walk away. I wish this was available in more areas.

5.00The tour goes at your own pace - even tells you when you go off course. This route is simple, but part of the course was closed. We could still listen to the commentary, and picked it up at the next point. An interesting tour.
