Postanowiłam zmienić ocenę ze względu na jakość nagrań, które są teraz o wiele lepsze. Wcześniej brzmiało jak translator google. Teraz jak prawdziwy przewodnik + muzyczka w tle. Testowane w Gdańsku i Rzymie – masa nagrań, potrzeba internetu.

Super przewodnik. Działa na każdej mojej wycieczce za granicą i ani razu mnie nie zawiódł. W Polsce pokazał wiele nieoczywistych miejsc. Bardzo dobry kontakt z usługodawcą.
