“Was ok. Good for bus ride to get great views! The audio didn't work however. At first stop bus dropped us off and left to turn around pick us up in different location, with no notice! People on our bus were a little panicked until we found where bus was. If you want bus ride this is good though.”

“De rit met de kleine touringbus was geweldig en we hebben een heerlijk genoten van de stops. De chauffeur was goed en hielp ook daar waar nodig. 's avonds op het schip zagen we de bezochte vuurtoren ook nog staan. Uitzichtpunt Alska was fantastisch.”

Self-guided GPS smartphone audio guide for Norway’s Hurtigruten coast, English or German walks from Ålesund to Tromsø.
“It is a very nice idea. I have to say beforehand, that we wanted to use it just for the city Tromsø so not for all the coastal cities. The main part of the audio was rather to get us to the next tour point as to tell us about the city (the audios were often times pretty short) so we haven‘t learned so much about the city or the monuments through this city tour but despite of that it was fun to walk through the city.”
Bergen audio walk hits Olav Kyrre, Grieg, Ibsen, and the Cathedral cannonball. Offline VoiceMap, English, about 1 hour, great value.
