This app-based walking tour is brilliant! Having the flexibility to explore Arles at my own pace without being tied to a large group schedule was a huge plus. The app is intuitive and easy to navigate, guiding you seamlessly from one Van Gogh landmark to the next. The commentary provided rich context about his time in Provence, and standing in the exact spots that inspired his masterpieces was an incredible experience. Highly recommend it for anyone wanting an independent, well-paced way to see the city!
I wouldn't recommend this. The app is quite irritating with an American voice droning on in detail inviting you to visualise Van Gogh's time while you're stood next to a bury road.
This was so much fun. I have done a lot of audio self guided tours and this was the best. As you walked up to a spot, the app recognized where you were and started telling about the spot. Very enjoyable, very educational. Will definitely look for tours from this app in the future. One note specific to this tour, make sure you are prepared to buy the advantage ticket o explore the monuments and museums in more details. Extra cost but definitely worth it.
This was my first time trying a self guided tour from viator so i had some hesitation, but it turned out well.
For older folks, walking in a day may take over 6 hours. Arles is only slightly up and down. Museums, Roman sights and shopping take time to experience. The guide is helpful with the sights and information along the way. We are going over two days.
App tried to update in the middle of the tour. No WiFi and could not update so app was not useable. I have asked for a refund.
I appreciated that we could walk at our own pace, stop to see sites on our own and then move along. We could also skip sites if we were tired (it was an extremely hot day- 97 degrees!). The walk was accessible and the voice guided tour was easy to follow. I appreciated being able to download the app and the directions so as not to tax my "roaming" and data on the phone.
The tour was great and very informative. We were able to follow the route and the commentary was very good. Highly recommend this tour.
it all worked OK but the map taking you from 1 location to another was appalling. It was difficult to follow to get you from one site to the next. Luckily I am quite good with maps and found my own way. The information given at each site was a bit basic especially in explaining some of the van Gogh locations. A bit over romantic. It was useful to use as a guide of what to see in Arles but I think I could have found this out without paying £7+ for the pleasure.
I loved that even though it's geared towards all things Van Gogh, the tour takes you all over so you in fact, see lots!
Downloaded app and was unable to access your.Terrible. Rip off.Would like refund as soon as possible.
