      Long walk, short on information
      Sally_K, May 2024
      We stayed in Haarlem while visiting it, Keukenhof and Amsterdam. So we wanted an informative tour. While on the tour, it wasn't clear which building was being referred to, and we couldn't figure out how to rewind to hear things again. So when it just started as we walked to the station, we were already behind, and didn't know which building the tour was talking about. We just walked and walked, and when we did know which place the tour referred to, we often didn't care, as it didn't have any interest. I wish we could have cut part of it out, but that wasn't easy or possible. I had high hopes for this tour, which didn't materialize. We lost our one day in Haarlem, and should have investigated it ourselves.

      What a beautiful place Haarlem is. This audio tour gave us direction and context to the history and relevance of many of the buildings as you wander around at your own pace. Loved this tour!
      Great Way to Tour Haarlem

      What a great way to conduct a audio guided walking tour!. Extremely cost-effective. Easy to download once you receive the company’s email. Four stars because of what it needs to be better: the guidance. I’m spoiled by the guidance provide by Waze and Google Maps. I found it difficult to proceed to each stop efficiently (and actually missed a third of the walk, mostly but not all my own fault), I would used this company’s products again without hesitation.

      Thank you for your great review. We will definetly look into the navigation. Have a great day.
      Not worthwhile tour.

      Awful. Not normal tour through Viator. Tour guide was not able to handle Kings Day crowds and rain. Also, spent significant time talking to another tour guide while walking. Was not able to assist in finding a toilet.

      Hi Richard, I think something went wrong with this review. We don't have a live guide. This is a audiotour!!!! So I think you are talking of a different tour. Kind regards Pocketguide Audiotours
