“Great experience with an amazing tour guide! Loved that it would give specific directions of how to get to the next stop! Even through a freak thunderstorm and pouring rain, it was a great adventure! Ponchos saved the day! My entire group had a blast! Loved that we could pause and go at our own pace while checking out the shops along the way! Highly recommend!”

“I was looking for a self guided audio tour and this seemed like a perfect option. So I bought it and then went through the lengthy process of creating an account, downloading the app, entering the code that was emailed to me, and then started downloading the tour. I work as an IT tech and this was even confusing and frustrating for me. Even worse, the tour would not start and kept looping me around. I spent 45 mins trying to get it to work but it never did. This was a horrible experience, DO NOT get this!”
