“Not a good app, you have to get to an appropriate point before unlocking the next part of the tour , one of the points was Edingburgh castle which to unlock you would have to pay to enter, ridiculous.We asked security if we could just pop in to open , ridiculous. Most of perimeter opening points on the game were a long way of the clues making the game ridiculous. Won’t be using this app again”

This particular tour was very focused on the city's architecture, which I didn't recall from the description, so if you aren't as interested in that aspect of the city's history, you may want to try another tour.”
