“It was the first time for me using the downloaded audio guide and it was great experience. This particular audio guide was really made like someone in person has been walking you through the attractions. Very easy to follow, interesting stories, you can stop and/or repeat the sections whenever you want. Great thing and definitely will repeat it for some following trip.”

“Le manque de communication. Ce fut une expérience horrible. J’ai réservé ce tour quelques mois à l’avance pour le 7 mai. Résultat: le site était fermé. Personne ne m’a avisé et on encaissé la somme totale à l’avance. J’ai demandé un remboursement, que je n’ai toujours pas reçu. La communication avec ce site est désastreuse.”
