    Having limited time in...

    Arlene_P, Dec 2025
    Having limited time in Ferrara and not wanting to commit to a timed tour, as most of my visit was castle and museums, this worked well- directing me to the highlights of the city and I could resume the tour or chose another attraction from the tour. I appreciated the restaurants suggestions at the end. The app was easy to use and clear.

    Great summary of places...

    Dora_T, Nov 2025
    Great summary of places in Ferrara. Easy to download and walk at your own pace. For the price, it was great.

    Good value and interesting tour

    LEIGH_T, Oct 2025
    Some initial technical issues downloading the guide which were due to the hotel’s network where we were staying. Lots of support from both Viator and the operator…many thanks

    A nice tour!

    Danielle_S, Jul 2025
    It was a nice activity and I learned a lot. You can listen to the explanations or read it which I liked.

    All right, thanks...

    Roberto_R, Mar 2026

    Just cute!!!

    Ilaria_S, Dec 2025
    Very comfortable, exhaustive, nice and satisfying experience. Without the need to keep up with a group, you are completely independent and the guy who recorded the audio is really very pleasant to listen to!!!

    At first, a bit of difficulty, then solved, and then great.o

    Gianfranco_Z, Jun 2025
    Great experience because you can decide when, how and what to see... without then being overwhelmed by too much information that you then do not remember...
