Como self guided tour - The self guided tour was very useful especially with family, you could stop and start at your own leisure. Very well informed information to either read or listen to. Would I recommend……YES

Convenient and interesting way to visit Como - I purchased this tour because I wasn’t sure at what time we would get to Como (so couldn’t book a guide) but still wanted to hear the history of this beautiful city. This tour was a great find! First, I was contacted by Matteo who helped me navigate the download (it was very easy) then when we got to Como, we just started the tour based on his recommended first step. It was extremely easy to use and very informative (but not long and boring) with a lot of added stories and information. I was a bit skeptical at first but it was perfect. I would definitely recommend it for anyone wanting the ease and convenience of going at your own pace (we stopped for lunch and restarted afterwards) and wants to hear the history as well as fun facts about Como.

A pleasant and well-organized tour experience - I want to thank Matteo for his availability and for solving my doubts before starting the tour. This type of tour with audio and text, even if it does not involve a Guide in person, offers many advantages: you can go at your own pace, stop whenever you want to rest and, if something is not clear to you, you can listen to the information again, which is consistent and explained very well. Congratulations on the excellent work, it was a really pleasant experience.

Very useful guide - Excellent solution for visiting the city! The audio is very practical and allows you to get around the city without having to constantly look at the screen. The most convenient thing, however, is to follow the itinerary already done by someone more experienced in order to optimize time and enjoy the best of the city.

Interesting and easy to use tour - Interesting and accessible tour. It covered the main areas in Como with some fascinating curiosities thrown in. We followed the main bit through the town, then out to Villa Orla and then to the funicular. It took most of the day to do everything and guarantees that you'll see and learn about the town
