Easy to learn about Salzburg

4.00Sometimes the map is a bit hard to follow. Pictures are included to help you find the things that you may have overlooked. It’s easy to bypass those things that you don’t wanna spend time with and just listen to the pieces on your mobile phone. lots of stops and lots of good information. You work at your own pace rather than following a tour guide at their pace.
Good, once we found the stops on the app map

4.00Once we figured out how the audio map worked and were able to follow it, the tour was very good and informative. Saw some nice parts of old town. But getting started in the right location was difficult.
Very good

5.00Excellent tour taking us to places we hadn't been before in Salzburg and explaining the history of many places. Also plenty of opportunities to break the tour to eat or shop and then rejoin it. Instructions were clear and easy to follow although I did struggle with the system of getting it onto my phone but that is probably due to my age and not being technically minded. It was nice to be able to do this tour at our own pace instead of in a group. The recommendation at the end to walk around to the cafe Stadtalm was well worth it.
Great way to discover Salzburg

5.00This was a very easy way to discover Salzburg. We could start whenever we were ready to and go at our own pace. It is easy to stop and restart the tour if you want to stop and check something out. We started one afternoon and finished the next morning. We learned a lot of history and also stories about the town and its people.
Nice overview of historic Salzburg

5.00Perfect for a solo traveler. A great walking tour. Informative. Hit all the Salzburg hot spots. Can go at your own pace. Be sure and get the Salzburg Card for free admission to most attractions and public transport.

5.00I absolutely love this tour: I explored the city by myself but actually it was like walking with a friend - the route was interesting and easy to navigate, I stopped in a couple of good places to enjoy the local food and I learnt a lot about the city - but not too many things :) Thank you for a wonderful tour!
The tour was fun once we got started.

4.00It took us awhile to get the gps portion to work for us but once we did all was good. We walked around for 6 hours before running out of battery.

5.00Never tried audio-guided tours before, but turns out it is a good option if you want to have a tour "on your own" and yet still with someone "taking care" of you if you feel it necessary. Thanks Anna for a structured information, perfectly aligned with visual experience.
