Very easy to follow, definitely made my solo trip fun and I learned a lot about the area. As an introvert, I enjoyed being off on my own away from the crowds. It traces your steps/direction so you won’t get lost. 10/10 would recommend!

Had a terrible time down loading app. Even with had 5 G. Couldn’t get sound to work. Only thing we could get was map tour and introduction by voice. The app. Just wasn’t user friendly at all. Waist of money.

Couldn’t get code and app to work together. Never used the app for intended purpose. Code provided by Viator would not work.
