Overview

App didn’t work so could not even do tour

Amy_B, Jun 2024
The apps were not working therefore we never were able to do the tour. I do hope your company reimburses me. Thank you.

Response from Host, Jun 2024

Of course you will get a refund and we apologize for this. The reason why you could not do the tour was because our server provider had technical issues that affected the app. The problem has now been resolved.

Het verhaal neemt je mee langs andere routes. Je ziet ook veel meer. Goed verhaal ook, zeker voor Walkander fans.

Kul sätt att uppleva Ystad. Både för förstagångsbesökare och rutinerade skånebesökare. För att få 5-stjärnor skulle vi önska lite fler gåtor i uppdraget. Klart värt ett besök
