Great way to see the city at your own pace - We enjoyed the tour as it made the experience more enjoyable with kids (5 and 8 year old). We also saw more of the city than we would have if just gone out on our own. Appreciate that we could do it at our own pace.

Fun but why do I pay a premium as a solo traveller? - An effective bit of fun. Some of the puzzles really didn't work well at all, but overall the game was fun and informative enough to warrant four stars. Deducting one, though, for the absurd and exploitative policy of charging a solo-traveller premium. It's a game in an app, for goodness sake! What possible excuse is there for charging me more per-person than if I were with someone else?!

Give this a miss - Didn’t like the obvious advertisement for a souvenir shop in the middle of the tour. Fairly lazy historical presentation, didn’t learn anything that wasn’t on the tourist signs throughout the citadel or a basic search on google. Give this a miss
