Rubbish

Halfway round NC 500 downloaded app at home before starting. Instructions request pressing subjects/ buttons that don’t exist. Thank God we didn’t go for the Isle of Skye tour too.

What happened?? From great to awful

I downloaded this app 2 years ago and purchased the tour for Isle of Skye and the North 100. It was fabulous. I recommended it in a Scotland tourist group but when the person had trouble I opened it to see if I could help. All the tours are gone. I can’t access any of them. I deleted and tried a new download but nothing. I can’t access the tours and you are losing sales. Too bad. It was really great.

Can’t really use app without buying in app purchases

This App looks great, but there is no where to try it out that doesn’t cost money. You’re able to see a list of highlights for free, but otherwise the app is really not accessible without payment.

Absolutely Essential

What an App! Even though we’d researched and identified some of the main points we wanted to visit on our NC500 trip this app was invaluable and provided additional information on the local area and history along the way, with the option to chose which version you want ie clockwise or anti-clockwise it really does cover everything

Amazing

We completed the NC500 and Skye with this guide and we can’t thank you enough! From toilets to car parks, you’ve thought of it all! We loved it!
