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.

Great little app, thank you

Very informative, it was also great to turn the phone up and listen to your voice who actually knows what they are on about compared with all the local rip off self proclaimed ‘guides’ making things up as they please. Thanks again.

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.
