First part of the tour in the gardens was good. Second part was outdated and not able to be followed. Dialogue was too long and repetitive.

Good descriptions, but it would have been very helpful to have had a map with the streets. One map, all the stop buttons, but not helpful to be sure we were in the right place. Like the concept and would use again in another city.
