The walking tour with the guide of an app was very helpful. It was very flexible, sometimes we stopped and enjoy the view and continue when we want. There's also audio guide with Important information about the history of certain points and places once you arrived on the spot. We thank Bernardo for his help and support. We loved our Obidos trip, we won't be able to find those hidden gems without your tips!
It was nice to learn some background/history about the town.
The flexibility of the application and its usefulness and the attention from Bernardo who was attentive at all times with very well-defined instructions
Todo muy bien
It was great! The little map of the city with the main tourist attractions was very useful for us! My family and I didn't have time to plan a specific itinerary for all the cities we were going to, so WalkBox helped a lot! An important note is that the map is not an audio guide, which can confuse some people. It's an organized itinerary of the city with the main tourist attractions to visit and a brief history of each one! It makes organizing your trip much easier! And Bernardo was super helpful! He gave us all the support through Whatsapp, including giving us tips on where to park and other interesting places to go!
Walking on the wall around the town
We mostly used it as a map.
Very unfavorable quality and content.
Flexible and cost-effective. Excellent approach for a quick tour. Beyond that, Bernardo was a great remote guide, gave me excellent tips and was very attentive. I am very happy with the tour. And concerning Óbidos: what a charming medieval village. A must to visit!
