Great app for traveler and who love travel

A lot of article sharing let you found some interesting place and things to do. A useful app for traveler who love surprise .

No audio, amateur descriptions

I went to Annapolis MD and tried the Landmarks tour. The app uses GPS. I had hoped for a guided audio tour. It wasnt. It had a map with marked destinations. At each landmark there was s text blurb to read that gave very little information.

Not worth paying for!

Very disappointing app. I was looking forward to following a walking tour with my headphones. This app did not give walking directions (not written nor aloud) and the written descriptions of the sites were very weak. Save your $5 and get a free tourist map!

Helpful

Wonderful. The app is just great. Download offline maps and tour guides for the city. I wasn’t expecting that the app would have that much details. A very nice, handy and helpful app. Must download and keep.

Informative travel content

Ive been learning a lot about the cities I visit using this nice little app. Be sure to dig deep into each article for the best city details and must visit attractions.

New twist for maps

The specialization of this app offers a new experience for gps mapping tech. The offline maps are really nice to have.

Useful

This app is perfect when youre traveling abroad and dont have any Wi-Fi or cellular plan.its really cool how you can find places without needing to be connected. Super helpful and love to use.

Useful

I really like that this app has compiled walking maps and travel articles in one place. This is definitely going to be my first step when planning trips and even learning about new things in my own city. The offline capabilities is a must when traveling to other countries and is much appreciated! The compilation of all of these resources will prove helpful on my next trip.

Great content

I use this app to look up things to do in a city that I am visiting and I always find great stuff here. A must keep to look up articles before you travel anywhere.

Useful!

Very useful, cant wait to use it on my next trip away. Lots of features and easy to use interface

Perfect

Great app for when you are visiting cities abroad without a data plan. Nice variety of tours as well!

Useless

Paid $5 for the upgrade and it was still useless. Dont waste your time.

City walks

Stinks 0 no if there were minus stars it would be minus 4 stars

Upgrades are non transferable...

I downloaded this app on my iPod and used it to travel around London, Edinburgh, and Glasgow. I had purchased the London upgrade for more details and Found places I probably wouldnt have otherwise been able to find. When the newest iPhone came out I bought it and hooked it up to my computer downloading all my purchased apps. City Walks downloaded, however, none of the downloaded walks transferred and specifically the upgraded one. This means I would have to pay for it again. No thank you!!!

City Walks is great!

I would imagine that people that found this "useless" did not take the time to learn how to use this app. You do indeed need the upgrade, but it is well worth it. I have now used it in 4 cities (Singapore, Tokyo, Charleston, and Savannah). This app is perfect if you like to walk (not for bus riders or couch potatoes) and want to get an overview of the things to see in a city. The tours hit all of the same highlights that a tour you would pay for, and for $4.99 this is much cheaper. The app provides good information about each site visited and without it you could easily walk right by some interesting places. It is also nice to be able to start and stop your tour whenever you want to spend more time at a spot, if something else catches your eye or you want to shop or have a drink or a meal. The custom (build your own) tour feature takes a short time to learn, but is well worth it. You can take all of the highlights from all of the apps tours for a city and pick the ones you want and then it creates a tour for you, draws a map and tells you how long the tour will take. With this you can skip things that are of no interest to you. We have found that if you are a good walker you can usually do the tours in less time than the app indicates. I had an issue with reloading a tour and when I contacted City Walks their response was very quick and it enabled me to fix my issue easily. I will definitely use this app for any city I visit that the app covers which is all of the big name cities in the world and many of the smaller ones. I have found that the more you use the app the better it gets.

The so-called audio tour reads whats written on the screen

Of all the walking tours Ive downloaded while traveling the world, this is the worst. Billed as an audio walking tour, the recordings (Santa Fe, NM version) are abysmal. The first one runs 40 seconds, telling you that people often park at the Capital, and where to find restrooms. The following site recordings simply read aloud whats written on the screen. Word for word. Seriously. What a waste of money. Delete.
