The digital companion and game questions made the tour fun - Mr Grumpy was the best companion :) and the questions in the game too. Tour itself was good and informative. Audio text-reader was not too annoying :)

Excellent tour from a well organized app. - Excellent tour. I have done a number of these audio tours from voicemap and they are really worth the money. Tell you about the town and it stories, not just the famous people and their dates.They Guide you through the town and talk to you about what you are seeing as you see it.

Worth the price - Worth it. Sure, the audio computer voice isn't ideal (and I think the app developers should consider changing it) but it was worth the small price, and really helped with understanding where to go and what to see in Tallinn.

Okay but not great; computer generated audio - This audio tour is okay if, like me, you have a short time in Tallinn and want to learn about it. You receive a link to download an app that has a map and the tour commentary. The map was kind of annoying to use because when you try to move it to look at surrounding areas from where you are, it zooms back to your location. The audio was computer generated, so I actually preferred to read the commentary instead of listening to it, but the audio automatically plays at each stop. There were quite a few sites in the app, but when I compared it to a map of old town that I got at the visitor information office, it didn’t have as many as on the printed map.

Not what I expected - This is not an audio guide it’s a computer reading service connected to a map with bad interface. The information was good though.
