It was great! Worked very...

Rick_G, Sep 2025
It was great! Worked very well with the amount of time used to explain each stop and then time to pause for a break or lunch. Very well versed.

A good inexpensive way to see the important walkable sites in Innsbruck

Chinmoy_B, Aug 2024
It was an easy to use app. Getting around with the directions was easy also. I used the app over two days to see all the sights. I expected to hear a bit more history at each site. Perhaps the owners can add a bonus for those of us who want to go further into history.

Awesome!

We found this tour really easy and self explanatory. I was given an app to download and everything was there! The only reason why I gave 1 less star is because they should let you know to take a power bank with you as the app drains your battery so had to make sure we found power along our route. Otherwise a great tour! :)

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Thank you very much for your feed back! It is very important point. We will add this into tour description! When travelling in winter due to cold temperatures phone battery usually runs out of charge very fast. Please remember, power bank in winter is necessary!

Great but could be better!

Brigitte_D, Jan 2024
We had a great time. The Nordkettebahn was an added bonus. I was really disappointed that it was narrated by an American who couldn’t pronounce any of the German names or places. As a German speaker, it really grated on me. Why not a native German speaker who speaks English?

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Dear Brigitte, thank you very much for feedback! We appreciate it very much. We already consider to translate this tour in German as well. But till now this tour is done for native English speakers, and so audio is provided by native american, who has worked as radio moderator. In future do also German translation and German record for German native speakers as well. Thank you for informing us that this is necessary! For future customers, I will add here in comment info as soon as it will be finished!

Great guide to the city!

Andrea_P, Mar 2023
I loved doing this tour! It was so nice to go at my own pace. I made a stop at the bell tower to climb to the top and got a great view! I also stopped and rode the lift that the tour brought me to! The tour was informative and gave great recommendations (definitely hit the last stop!)
