“The idea is good but several improvements are needed. Requiring an app to be downloaded is an extran unnecessary step. It should be web based or the use of another already downloaded app like an extension of viator for example would be more convenient. Also, the app should allow the selection of maps instead of the default. The default map was awful. Also the story should be audible so groups can listen to the story because i’m bright sunlight it’s difficult to read.”
