Ratings and reviews

horrible experience, I spent my time figuring with the app rather than enjoying the sites. the English commentary had a strong distracted accent and wonky syntax. the app doesn't really play the right commentary for the tight spot, or switches to a different spot if you move a little bit. I so regret paying for a tour that I closed this app.

Horrible app! The actual content is good but the app is very glitchy. I liked that it used your location to play clips but it wasn't accurate. As you moved around the next clip would play, regardless of if you finished the previous one. So, you never got to hear a full clip. The app would not allow me to skip clips and and one point got caught on one clip and we couldn't select anything else. Closing the app and reopening didn't fix the issue so we gave up altogether. The iOS version was worse!

The Acropolis audio guide in English was slow and, at times, hard to understand because of the guide's Greek accent. There were some pronunciation errors that compounded that (eg 'sageing' for 'sagging' and worse). It was faster to read the text although it was helpful to listen when you had to watch where you were walking. The geolocation didn't seem to work well so it was just easier to tap on the screen.
