If you are looking to get some exercise, learn about sites in the city and go at your own pace this is a wonderful audio tour.
We enjoyed both listening to the tour and reading it as well. I read what was was coming up while waiting for my husband to take photos. It is worth going into the church. It is free. We didnt go into the door to the left where there is a fee.
They have coin slots to turn on the lights for a minute.
There is a Jewish ghetto along the way if you pay attention to the signs as well as other historical tidbits.
We recommend the walk. The creator requested a review...but I was going to leave one anyways. We wish him well on his business of creating these, because it makes it easy to get some exercise in these cruise ports while learning more.

Good information and tips to get around the city. Unfortunately we needed our own data and headphones (no wifi) which was problematic.

You will need to have Wi-Fi access for this so make sure you have an eSIM for the area or a mobile plan. It is a walking tour that allows you to enjoy on your own or with friends to see the sights in trieste. It will take a few hours especially if you stop in a few areas or don't walk very fast. I don't recommend the audio as someone else mentioned in review. It would have been nice if the creator pronounced the words correctly especially the name of the city. It got irritating after listening to about 2 of the audio clips. After that I just read the informative information instead of using audio. That's really the only criticism I have. I would give it 4.5 stars, and if you're in the area for a cruise it's even better as the tour starts and ends very close to the cruise Port. You can drop off your luggage for your cruise or check in fully and then hop off the boat, take the tour and get back before the ship sails. I would allot 2-3 hours for the tour

The audio was extremely clear and articulate,. And what made a big difference was we were able to stop at any time and restart. We had no trouble following the directions. It was extremely informative and well worth the low cost.

Awesome self paced tour. Very well narrated and easy to follow. Mateo did excellent job. Book this tour if you are in Trieste.
Angello_R, Apr 2025
Informative, great suggestions and freedom to do whatever you want at your own pace. You can of course follow the trip entirely or not, it is up to you which I happen to like
Miriam_S, Apr 2025
This is good if you have a few hours to kill and want to see the main sights.
A bit of history, handy Google map directions to each location and audio and video for each stop. The food and restaurant commentary is handy … BUT if you exit the house you have to start at the begging to get back into it again and BE WARNED annoyingly the narrator isn’t Italian. Instead it’s an American who can’t pronounce any of the locations , sites or even Trieste correctly. It’s so bad it’s bordering on offensive.
And the hyper excited high pitched interjections by the developer ? are cringe worthy.
Personally I don’t want to hear anything other than a local ITALIAN ACCENT when in Itally.

While this did turn out fine it was unclear at the start that this is a self-guided tour. The written is online and it was well organized. The maps fit walking were very helpful. The audio did not work. We did enjoy the walking and the sights were very good as was the written information. Overall it was a positive experience even if it wasn’t what we thought it was
Response from Host, Oct 2024
Ciao Kathy! I'm glad that you enjoyed the experience! 😉 I think it's pretty well explained in the announcement that this is a “digital guide,” and I'm sorry you didn't get it 🥲!
About audio issue: sometimes when you have weak internet connection, it takes a little bit to load audios! I also always recommend to refresh the page and see if it fixes.😎
Hope to see you again into another digital guide!
Ciao
Matteo

Nice walk through the city. Bit of a climb to the cathedral on a hot day! Take water. Not ton sure about American pronunciation of Trieste but on the whole a good thing to do with a spare few hours in the City.

Passing through Trieste, I managed alone, despite the rain, to get an idea of the city. Simple and effective driving. Beautiful experience.

Walk in Trieste with audio guide on your phone. Nice experience and alternative to the usual written guides. Duration about dur hours and a half. You can interrupt and resume throughout the day then take, for example, your lunch break or visit a museum during the tour.

Basic tour, but that gives you the opportunity to understand the most important points of the city. For my own needs I would have preferred to go into some details, but I understand that maybe it is not part of the package.
However I highly recommend!

Very detailed tour. I'll use it for other cities, too. I really enjoyed it. Audio reading is also written and this is not distracting.

In my experience it is a very suitable guide for those who travel alone and want a company to guide it.

Applicazione facile da usare e ricca di informazioni e curiosità. Un bel modo per prendere confidenza con la città, piaciuto anche al figlio adolescente! Piacevole all'ascolto, tocca alcuni dei luoghi più suggestivi di Trieste. Consigliata
