Best tour I ever did. The artist who talked was lovely and easily understood. It as so interesting to learn about Old Lyon like this, and I loved being able to stop it and restart when I wanted.

That was very interesting to discover the hidden passages and learn about the history of old Lyon. The app is easy to use (unless you occasionally loose the track). I’m looking forward to try it in Paris and the other cities. Great value for money!
