Lovely way to spend an afternoon - Super tour that took us to the highlights of Oxford with just enough explanation to keep a family with teens entertained.

Discovering Oxford - Wonderful app and I will use it again in other cities. Very clear and easy to use. Able to use the app on my schedule. Stop and restart at my convenience. Described all of the sites I had planned on visiting and introduced me to new destinations and discoveries. I would recommend Tourific to anyone who wants to experience a destination conveniently.

Perfect for a chilled tour! - I found this tour on TripAdvisor and it suited our needs perfectly. So easy to use and really informative. We could do it at our own pace and mix the route up if we wanted. Really impressed.

A Most Enjoyable Way To Do A Guided Tour - Being not too technology savvy pensioners it took us a few minutes to understand how the app worked but once we had it was great. The route was clearly marked out on a map and the mobile phone location satnav showed exactly where you were and where you needed to be heading. The places of interest commentary stops were very informative. Recommended.

This experience was nice... - This experience was nice if youre a bit short on time or want to supplement other experiences. We got the most use out of the map that had the locations marked.

Complete waste of money! I love walking tours and audio tours but NOT this one. - This tour offers nothing you can’t get using Google Maps. Minimal descriptions of the “points of interest” and no narration of any of the hundreds of buildings of architectural or historical interest along the way. My advice is get a live guide.
