The tour was challenging to negotiate. We had a good internet connection, but we found it difficult to reach the locations according to the self-guided audio tour. We gave up halfway. Also the information provided about the locations was not interesting.

During the evening it is difficult because a couple of the walk thru areas are closed. Had to find our way around.

We really enjoyed our walk through Melbourne and learning all about this beautiful city. Once we got started the instructions were clear and easy to follow. I feel like we saw all the highlights. We did struggle to find the starting location because I was under the impression we were to start at federation square. You actually start at the river below, which would have saved us a bit of walking and confusion from the start.

What a fabulous way to see and hear about Melbourne. The option to pause and look further is a great option and being able to hear the whole commentary with ease is a plus.

I like that you can repeat sections, stop the tour and visit some of the shops on the route, then resume. It’s a great introduction to Melbourne.

This walking tour was a great option for a solo traveler. It was educational and while the app location pick-ups aren't always perfect it is easy enough to load the appropriate sound file manually and not miss anything.
