The tour was excellent was self paced and gave us time to walk at our own speed. We stopped a couple of times for shopping and lunch and then continued. The information was informative, interesting and easy to follow. I would recommend it to anyone who has the capacity to walk the distance.

The tour itself is great. Easy to understand and with good directions that are easy to follow. One thing to be aware of is that the app needs to download the full tour audio before you can start, so if you’re somewhere without good data coverage (that happens, you’re travelling) it means a lot of sitting and waiting before you can start. That plus the fact that the option to pick up halfway through later didn’t work and kept resetting me to the initial starting point prevents this from being a 5-star recommend.
