I didn't even listen to the Audio Guide. But it is reliable and well organized. After a couple of days (reasonable amount), the access to the audio files is cut.

Pretty exhaustive list of Tokyo sightseeing locations are covered. However the depth of the audio summaries leaves a lot to desire. I ended up reading more online and at the location versus using this guide. I would not recommend unless you’re seeking a very high-level summary of many different sightseeing spots in Tokyo.

All good. Seasonal information would be helpful is that it shows best times to visit. Some places would be best to visit in Soring or Autumn when the leaves changes colour
