The information was great but it would be better if it was a guided map - some of the points are tricky to find without knowledge of the area.

The use of the audio guide was satisfactory. The instructions at the beginning could have been more detailed. You download the mentioned application and through your confirmation email, by tapping the qrcode you enter the audio guide. It recognises by using your position where you stand and it starts describing. That was not very easy to follow since you might be watching something else and hearing about something else. When I understood how it worked, I paused it and according to the number of the ancient house I entered I tapped the audio that referred to this and heard the appropriate part. The descriptions were very helpful, not very long, to the point. After I managed this, I enjoyed the audio guide to the fullest. I would choose it again. Don't vist the site without an audio guide or guide in genEral. It makes a big difference if you want to get the most of your visit!

Crappy app. Impossible to download, links don’t work. A waste of time.
