“The App and the instructions were far too complicated. Involved changing screens all the time. I was looking for a self guided walk taking myself and 4 friends around a route to look at “Banksy Art”. - which is what was described after all!

3.Shoreditch Self-Guided Walking Tour: Art, Cuisine & Culture

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 14 reviews · 45 to 50 minutes (approx.) · from $6

Follow a 45 to 50-minute self-guided audio walk from Old Street to Spitalfields Market. You’ll visit Shakespeare’s first theatre site, Banksy’s Shoreditch graffiti area, Brick Lane, Beigel Bake, Truman Brewery, and more, using offline maps and location-aware directions.

“Unfortunately, once we arrived at the tour start, we could not access directions or consistent audio narration. When we were able to get audio, it cut off after step 1 and would not continue. While trying, the best option offered was to purchase another app for audio, which was not mentioned in the original tour advert. After several attempts, we gave up and used the map and Google to follow the tour. Hated to miss the narration, but enjoyed our adaptation.”
