    Fairly easy to use and clear. A little confusing in that reference to the clock tower starts in the public garden, but the clock tower is at the citadel which is across the street.

    Loved the audio tour, saw a lot of Halifax in our short time off the ship. Beware, there are hills and stairs, which we loved, but just good to know. Great to be on our own pace. Listen carefully to the directions, we got a bit turned around once or twice.

    Easy to set up. Informative-history to present day. Walk at own pace. Directions are not always clear OR Right should be left. Good recommendation for meals. Take a walking stick. Halifax hills are deceptive!!!

    It’s a very good option for touring. Only thing was we had a little issue with it starting again once we got to the next stop. Keep your phone out and pause it at the end of each description then restart when you get to the next. Otherwise, loved this! Well worth the money. Must have ear pods to listen to it.
