It was a little hard to get used to initially, but once I got the hang of it it was a great introduction to Banff. Nice inexpensive way to get to know the town and it's history

If you are into historical homes and buildings this is a fun walk around the town. The entire trip was about 4 miles, with only a little bit of elevation change.

Good descriptions, but it would have been very helpful to have had a map with the streets. One map, all the stop buttons, but not helpful to be sure we were in the right place. Like the concept and would use again in another city.
Good information but terrible app interface

Audio information was worthwhile however the user interface and performance of the app was terrible. App would frequently jump out of map to some slogan page.
Too cold to walk!

The tour was interesting but due to the -19 temperatures we were trying to drive instead of walk so we missed quite a bit. Will definitely try again in the summer months.
