  • Not good for self guided tour

    Wised I would have researched more about tho app before purchase. Even thought it was only .99, it was no value to me while walking thru Tulum. You had to know where you were located in order find the building information. The “where am I now” didn’t help any either.
  • Not worth it

    Audio doesn’t work and good luck finding all the structures to read a written description of each. Not worth even the $1. With a little work of fixing audio, gps tracking of where you are on the map, and changing the descriptions of locations from numbers to the actual names, it would be a great app.

  • Big Potential But Falls Short

    While viewing Talum you definitely need a guide, an app, or a book. Otherwise you are looking at ruins with rich history but no way to get the information. The physical signs at Talum are non-descriptive.
    This app has a great map and a great idea where it knows where you are and can give you descriptions of each ruin. You don’t need WiFi for the guided tour which is a cool feature. The app falls short in the level of detail on the text and video. Very basic and not interesting. We found ourselves eaves dropping on the guided tours where they were giving interesting info. We stopped using the app halfway through. This app should incorporate vivid descriptions otherwise it’s not very useful.

  • Doesn't download

    I've been trying to download this for 20 minutes and it won't even load. I have full wi fi connection
  • Great App!

    I have had the privilege of using this app at Tulum Ruins and it really enhanced my experience there. I have heard some of the guides give inaccurate information at other sites, so I wanted to see what a real expert had to say, and wow, does this app have a lot of really interesting and real information!

    Thanks so much for this app!

  • Use This App OR get a Guide

    You're going to be surprised at how nice Tulum is but also at how little information there is. The information boards are often not there or weather beaten to the point of being unreadable. I found this app and it had 1 bad review but I was desperate so I gave it a whirl. Took a while to download because I was literally AT Tulum but after doing so you pick #1 and it literally guides you there...to the very spot, very reliably. I don't know what the problem was that the previous reviewer had because it worked surprisingly well. When you get there you click the "about" button and it brings up a picture, an audio file and a script with hyperlinks. You don't need a guide if you have the app. If I'm being picky, I would like the "Ed's Guide" option to be a little more Rick Steves-like and walk you through. It's possible, however, that it does and I never figured it out.

  • Perfect way to know what you're looking at...

    Great app. Easy to follow, download before you go, and you can use it offline.
  • Great app for IPad and IPhone

    This app offers great photos and detailed descriptions of this site's structures. I learned more from this app than from any tour guide I have used in the past.
