Good and informative audio, you can enjoy your trip at your own pace. Including lunch, I spent almost 6 hours for the whole trip.

Great cheap way of getting to know the city. The guide was informative and friendly. Unfortunately the app itself is super clunky and refused to load the maps and directions at all, which got super frustrating in the freezing weather. Great concept and content let down by the app.
