We really enjoyed this tour. The flexibility worked out perfect for us since we had our 7 month old teething baby with us so days and nights are a little off right now. And since it was snowing and pretty cold the day we went, I stayed in the car with our son while my wife hopped out where she wanted and snapped pics. We enjoyed learning the history of Nuremberg and loved that it gave directions to the next destination as well. All in all it was a great tour and a good experience so we did another audio tour like this in Salzburg.

This audio guide was great! Some of the directionals were vague, but I was easily able to navigate using my phone's map with the directions. Perfect way to see the Old Town of Nuremberg.

It was an amazing tour. It covered lot of details and I'm very impressed. Loved it and I would highly recommend the self guided tour.

Very pleasant voice. Length of the individual audios very appropriate. Wish it included more Nuremberg attractions.

Very good tour of the dungeons of old Nuremberg. The tour guide was very funny.
