A waste of time and money

Eric_H, Sep 2026

I would not recommend this to anyone. The tour gave very poor directions on how to get to the next stop. Once we got to the stop it often repeated the audio of the previous stop. Very frustrating, we gave up after 4 stops

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the tours didn’t work as expected for you. Each tour includes a short tutorial at the beginning that explains how to use the app, including the interactive map, or how manually select stops, so we’re curious about what might have happened here. The tours in this bundle have been in production for some time, and we haven’t heard reports of this type of issue across all three tours before. If something has recently changed on the backend, we want to flag it immediately, with our app provider, so future travelers don’t run into the same problem. If you’re open to it, please email us at info@tripvia.tours with a few specifics. We’d be happy to investigate and help resolve whatever occurred.

Very informative and low...

Susan_P, Oct 2025

Very informative and low stress. The tour pointed out sights that I might not have noticed. It is awesome when the audio starts automatically when you approach the intended stop. I enjoyed the narrators humor. I hope you continue to offer self guided walking tours for new locations.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Wow, thank you! It’s awesome to hear that you found the tour so informative and low stress. We're thrilled that the feature allowing the audio to start automatically worked so well and helped you discover sights you might have missed. We also love that you enjoyed the narrator's humor! We appreciate your suggestion for new self-guided walking tours and are actively exploring new locations, so keep checking back!

Seeing downtown Calgary

Kathy_G, Jul 2025

We covered a decent amount of downtown Calgary territory. The weather was not very cooperative, so we didn't use as much of this as we could have. The prescriptions very good, along with the directions.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thanks for your great review of our Downtown Calgary tours! We're thrilled to hear you covered a good amount of territory and found the descriptions and directions very good. We're sorry the weather didn't cooperate, but we're glad you still made the most of it. We hope you enjoyed exploring Calgary!

Go East My Witty Friend

Kelly_C, Jun 2024

The Devonian Gardens, The Famous Five and the Olympic Park were my favorite parts of tour. The narrator was very informative and witty. I liked the quizzes after each stop.

Response from Host, Jun 2024

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled that you found our narrator's informative and witty style enjoyable, and we're glad you liked the quizzes too. Your feedback means a lot to us!
