the App is not easy to download and no clear instructions. Consequently did not use it. It is a shame you cannot download the app beforehand so that you can plan in advance and ensure everything is up and running before the day you need it.

This little walking tour was full of interesting facts and history. I found it insightful and was glad I purchased - much more economical than a walking tour with a tour guide.
