I wish I would have know I didn't need to purchase 3 tickets. We only needed one phone because it was just me & my 2 kids. Waste of money. I just assumed it would be more interactive. Going at night everything is locked up so you can't get the real experience. Not what I was expecting at all.

Hi Audrey, I’m sorry the tour was not what you expected and thank you so much for the feedback. Our tours are on demand, smart phone self guided experiences. And unfortunately some of the stops, like the burial grounds, are run by the National Parks or city and have opening hours. For the best experience we suggest everyone uses earbuds on their own phone, but you can certainly use a speaker on one phone for a group to hear. Some of the stops on the tour are public, like the parks, but some are private hotels with certain opening hours, as you noted. I'm sorry this is not what you expected. I have given. you a full refund. Thank you for your feedback, we are a new and small operator and your feedback is helpful for us to create improved experiences in the future.
