NOTE:
Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. This app uses your location service and GPS tracking feature to allow real-time tracking of your route.
I was quite surprised at how good this was! The route is well planned and easy to follow, the audio tour is concise and informative. Would definitely reccomend and we were glad that we hadn't opted for a tourguide instead, which was much more expensive and big groups
Gracias a Las Guías de Chichen Itzaoo
It's OK. Not the most informative or interesting. Generally quite standard information with a bit of local knowledge perhaps sprinkled in. A few voice notes waste time when the speaker could be providing interesting information instead. For example one of the notes spent most of the time essentially advertising restaurants you can eat in or recomending cenotes to go swim in. Not what I want to hear. For basic info it's okay, and affords you the luxury of not being stuck in a huge tour group.
Really helpful and really well done! It made the difference to our visit
Works but not good at all, needs a lot more polish. The gps just couldn't track us in the right place and the app is just wonky jumping between portions of the tour. Ultimately for the price and lack of competing apps it was for the $10 for us and we recommend it but set your expectations right.
Really impressive app - well researched and informative and works well. My partner and I really enjoyed walking around the ruins together and listening to the audio.
This is not a complete tour, only the demo, and tour guides onsite are cheaper
