“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.”
