A historical visit that provides a good overview of the city and allows for identifying sites to explore in more depth.
Merci beaucoup pour votre retour. Nous sommes ravis que la visite vous ait permis de découvrir la ville sous un nouvel angle.
We were not able to join the tour as we did not find the meeting place. We went to various tourist info centers but none knew about the tour we got How disappointing, waste of money and time.
Hello , We apologise for the issue you face. As the name suggests it is a self guided tour with an app. So there is no tour guide. We have made it clear in the listing as well. The tour is conducted through an app and all information is shared via email just after the booking is made. We would have appreciated if you would have reached out to us via support@tourific.org for clarification. Again we apologise for the confusion. thanks, Tourific Team
Great time and saw parts of the city we would probably not have seen. Love the 4711 as brought back.memories of the Eau d'cologne. Interesting to have the narrative of the all buildings. The map could have been improved if the audio box went from the screen and.allowed the map bigger without the need to enlarge.
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the tour, and we’ll try to improve the map area for a better experience. We hope to welcome you on another tour soon!
The tour itself is good, however the voiceover is AI and at most of the stops, it does just repeat the information signs at the stops for example EL-DE haus, markt square and the festival hall. I would not recommend this tour and for people to just do their research before visiting as all of this is repeated information and AI.
Hello Catherine, We sincerely apologise for your experience. We have processed full refund for your tour. We're taking your comments seriously and will be reviewing the tour's audio content to ensure it offers unique and valuable information. Your feedback is crucial in helping us improve, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. Thanks, Tourific Team
The tour was great but the map was difficult to follow due to the very small direction arrow on the location point. Other than that it was a good day out.
