What To Expect
The abbey was founded in 983 AD by the bishop of Modena, Giovanni da Canossa. It was built on an earlier religious site and quickly became an important spiritual and cultural center. Since its foundation, the abbey has been occupied by Benedictine monks, known for their commitment to prayer, study and manual work.
Mercato Albinelli

AI travel guides are annoying.

3.00AI voices are annoying. The language is monotonous, the pronunciation is often incorrect, the translations are literal - and idioms cannot be translated directly.

4.00It was interesting to download the sites to visit with history of the various places we visited. It was very convenient to do the walk on your own at your own pace and read about the stops. Matteo's research was very informative.

5.00I thought the Walking Cap Modena Walking Tour was value for money if used to its full potential. It’s an easy way to explore a city at your own pace. I liked that I could play, pause and replay the attraction information. I will use this this type of walking tour again. https://www.tripadvisor.com/AttractionProductReview-g187803-d28132723-Modena_Walking_Tour_with_Audio_and_Written_Guide_by_a_Local-Modena_Province_of_Mod.html

2.00Second tour that I was unable to share with my husband, my traveling partner we still do not know how to get the program onto his phone what does buying two tickets mean if only one person can use the device?
