  • Disappointing

    It was really hard to get connected to the tour. We were given 3 different numbers to enter with no indication as to which one. When I finally got connected and paused the tour, it kept going back to the beginning. The content seemed informative but I gave up after a while. Overall disappointing

  • Never could find the starting point

    We never found the starting point and the place. No one knew where the place was. We were disappointed.

    I liked being able to do a walking tour by just popping in my headphones and having someone tell me where to go and what I was seeing. Good length and good information.

  • Excellent priced tour

    I liked the self-paced tour. Nice price. Covered a lot of area. App worked very well. I usually prefer doing a tour with a small group but this was a nice option.
