As a solo traveller this was perfect. - I really enjoyed this :) I'm a solo traveller and It's always a bit daunting when you first get to a new city so I found this was perfect to do for my first day here. It helped me find my way around town and I felt like I had more of a purpose following the tour instead of aimlessly wandering around and missing things.

Not much historical. - Not enough history or historical accounts, stories from the past. Spent way too much time taking about restaurants.

No sound file - We didn't get the audio file. So no turn for us. Nor have we received answers to our questions regarding the missing audio file.
