Main problem was when you are in the location the cellular signal is intermittent. Also, it was hard to follow the directions because many of the streets were ending in multiple intersections. But between that google maps and your app, I did manage to finish the walk but took way longer almost draining my battery. Technically not the app’s problem but just wanted to let you know.
I am a tech person but found the program difficult to use.

Unless you use the app exactly in sync with the speaker it is very hard to use. It should be much easier to be informative. Such as getting a written explanation of each location.
Nice walk

The app does not work very intuitively. Eventually managed to work with it. Of course it's about Hemingway, but also expected a bit more general info about Pamplona. Nice walk. Yeah.

My daughter is an English teacher and loved all of the information along the tour. I enjoyed getting to see around the city as we were guided through the tour, even though I am not a Hemingway "fan".

Wow... Awesone... What a way to get yo know a place... I enjoyed visiting Hemingway's favorite spots in Pamplona, along with its anecdots.... And the best part: you can do it on your on pace, do you can stop to have a "pincho" at "Txoko" and coffee at Café Iruña, to "take in" the place.... I highly recommend it!¹
Maybe a grand tour, but not possible during San Fermin festival.

I was happy to get this - but have never visited Pamplona before. As we were there during San Fermin festival it was actually not possible to use the tour, the small streets and all of the city centre/historical centre was crowded 24/7. At noe time from July 6th to8th during our stay it was possible to move and watch Hemingway sites. But we read in Google and found his statue, we had tickets for the Bullfight and was present in the stadium, and we decided not to attend the bull runs as we almost were squashed during the opening ceremony with red scarves. Anyway, many things were positive and we finally found Cafe Iruna, but absolutely no chair was free, inside or out. Our group went to San Sebastian and Madrid and found Hemingway mementoes from his books there. Maybe someone could have told us it was not an option to do this tour at the festival........................
