Good alternative to guide - The app gave us flexibility with arrival time. Interesting info. I wish it could go out of sequence because I was moving away from crowds as much as possible. I also wish we could keep recording to play back as I viewed my photos later..

Short - I like a self guided tour/hunt which is why I chose to do this via VoiceMap. It could have had more detail and covered a wider area but there were a few interesting facts. The narrator had a good tone. It was a bit annoying when I wanted to stop longer than she thought I needed, as I would then have to pause it. She would then repeat the place I’d just been. It wouldn’t detract me from using an audio tour elsewhere.
