Great experience - Freedom from others was what I enjoyed - our family were able to take our time and keep within our tight budget while still seeing the highlights. We did it early morning and then had a rest and resumed in the evening after the kids had napped.

Amazing services - Good tour for the price - thoroughly enjoyed listening and not having to worry about going from point to point as all information was on the audio. This worked well for our family.

Not worth it - Descriptions of buildings are around 3-4 minutes long and provide very little information. The detailed map is pathetic and not helpful. You'd be better off looking the buidings up on Google maps. Don't waste your money on this. Get a guide book instead. You'll thousands of time more information.
