“The content and stops were interesting and well chosen, but I didn’t love the app experience compared to other audio tour apps I’ve used that include built-in navigation. The route could’ve been planned a bit better—some stops felt out of order, which led to a bit of unnecessary backtracking and walking in circles. Still, the tour itself had solid information.”
