Excellent! We chose the audio tour in Italian but we could have done it in English. This is the second time we have done an audio guided tour to discover a city. We did not have much time there and we did not find any guides available to show us the city. This audio tour was very interesting because it allowed us to discover places and details that we could not have discovered on our own. We particularly liked the stories about the cathedral and the recommendations for restaurants to eat at lunch. Excellent value for money!
