5.00This was a very good, laidback and thorough self guided tour of Lucerne. We were able to simply download the tour on an app and listened through our AirPods(any headphones would work). We were impressed with the excellent details that helped us find our way through Lucerne on foot and also in the very thorough history and details provided about each site/stop along the way.
Dissapointing

1.00Very disappointing. We were not able to use the link that was sent to us. We tried on 4 different phones. We wasted 30 mins trying to figure this out. We were so looking forward to this tour. On the upside the tour company is refunding our money. However I used my Viator credits and not sure I will receive those back.
