The guide itself was very...

Greig_C, Oct 2025
The guide itself was very good. However 2 out of the 4 codes to get started wasn’t working. It was resolved quickly though. The self guided app is available for 30 days. There is no way to do every stop in 1 day. The app wasn’t clear about that.

Great value

Mark_S, Jul 2025
Great value and loads of information. Also, could go at my own pace. I also really liked being able to read as well as listen to the information. This helped me better process and retain the information.
