Très bien au point le plus élevé à Pouilly en Auxois le Canal passe par un Tunnel de 3.348 mètres, qui aujourdhui de visite.

Pas bien

Surprenant quon ne trouve pas de descriptif pour château de Blois, lun de château le plus connu dans la région!

Bon guide audio

Très pratique lors de mes voyages

Very nice app

Very Nice!

Good Information, but extremely limited usability

This program is quite poor for overseas travelling, where you might not have a cellular data connection at all times. The program wont even open if you dont have internet access. It would be ideal to be able to download the info (even just the text and pictures) while at the hotel using wifi, then listen to it while touring around the city. Once realizing this, instant buyers regret. Also, the mapping function is pretty much as basic as it gets.

Good concept, poor execution

This app sounded like a fantastic idea, but when I actually tried it, I was disappointed. It has a clumsy user interface with many shortfalls and is not what I have come to expect from a good iPhone application. For example, hitting the locate button brings you back to the list page instead of staying in the map page. The selection of points of interest are very limited. The only things available around my area were some voice synthesized wiki articles, many of which were not too useful, e.g. one entry reads out the list of stores at a nearby mall and their floor areas. Still, if you want an automated, location aware wiki reader, this could actually provide some some utility for you. It was not what I had in mind though as I was looking for something that would work well as a travel guide.
