Good content, poor directions
There are two sides to a self guided tour a) interesting and entertaining content and b) showing you where to go. This tour had good content with the first information about each stop the right sort of length but… there was only a map of stops without verbal ( or written directions) . Worse the pins for some were in the wrong place, leading us up and down trying to find the point and at one point either the description was wrong or the photo ( fountain) . Other self- guided tours we’ve been on have had excellent instructions including advice on what you should be seeing to allow you to check before the commentary started .
