A great way to see the sights! - Unfortunately the weather was poor but the walking app was excellent. Easy to use and informative. There is actually not a lot to see in Como but the app guided us around all the places of interest whilst on a pleasant walk. I would certainly use this again in another City

Easy to use and fun - Very well organized and easy to use. Como is beautiful and this guide helped us gain a better appreciation for it! My wife and I loved exploring everything that makes Como special at our own pace.

Nice “do it yourself” walking tour with good explanation. - Fine and original walk through Como with clear explanation. The tour can be followed via your mobile phone and you can also follow the facts via text.

Loved seeing the city through the eyes of a local guide - My husband and I decided to take the ferry to Como for the day, knowing nothing about the city. We loved the walking tour guide that moved us through the historical part with walking commentary. We are so glad that we did it - so worth the money!

Great introduction to Lake Como - A simple and easy to use introductory guide to Lake Como. It allows travellers to simply get their bearings and an overview of Como. Both written and audio guides allow flexibility for a diversity of users. The added bonus of a local’s personal insights adds clarity and authenticity. Highly recommend.

Amazing and really cheap! - I was looking for a free walking tour in Como but couldn’t find one, so I tried this option and it was really, really good. The guide is easy to understand and use, and it’s great that you can visit each place at any time you want. It made it very easy to explore the city, and I would definitely recommend it. As a suggestion, it would be nice to have more recommendations for affordable places to eat. I really enjoy my day in Como thanks to this experience.

Good for solo travelers and for groups👍🏼 - Very well-developed city tour and a great advantage that you can explore the city at your own pace. The site is pretty self-explanatory and has always worked. Only the first opening of the link via the mail did not work so well. But right after contacting me via WhatsApp I got the link again and then everything worked out.

Sad experience - Unfortunately, it didn't work. We paid and couldn't use it. We were very disappointed! We saw very briefly how it should be, before and after we tried for a long time to log on to the website.
