Nice story and perfect walking experience through Ystad! - We did the tour today because I'm a fan of Henning Mankell and it was really nice to experience the city trough this well told story of commissar Wallander. The audio voice was nice and the walking distance perfect. During this tour you see nice places and can have a coffee at the cafes which are part of the story. Can only recommend it when you like audiobooks and/or crime stories! Note: bring a full battery and headphones with you!

Very nice - The story is quite nice, but it was surprising and disappointing little mystery to solve. First of all, you don't solve the murder case in the real sense. What bothered me a lot is that Swedish proper names are pronounced German and therefore completely wrong. Surely that could be fixed?

If you know Wallander, then take this audio tour - You must have seen the series to recognize the Wallander must-see locations. The plus point is that you go to places and there is something to say about them. My tip would be that when something is said, you sit somewhere and listen. I myself was too easily distracted. If only there were more audio tours than just in Sweden's big cities

Eats battery - The app eats your battery in winter time like popcorn. My phone died after half of the tour. The software need to improve.
