Loved this audio tour! I was glad when I found out it was the same company I used previously when I went to Paris. I like that I can keep it forever. It helps keep me on track, when I walk the wrong direction, lol. I can take my time to explore along the way, which I did. Info was great and I had a great walk on a beautiful day, exploring at my own pace.
The author is a local who provides historical context and contemporary flavor that make for a very rewarding tour of these major sites in Milan. The VoiceMap app is remarkably agile, given that it stops playing when the description of a given site is finished and then picks back up as soon as you reach the next by following you on GPS. This was on the whole, much more enjoyable than joining a large group of people with a tour guide that you can barely hear who may or may not be knowledgeable on the subject. Highly recommended!
