It was a quick and easy way to learn about the inside of the Strasbourg Cathedral. The instructions were straightforward and the pace was excellent. Highly recommended.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the experience and found it easy to follow.
You better have Internet connectivity or getting your tour might be tricky. It comes from a third party and you need to download their app to take the tour
Audio guide well done, detailed. It allowed us to see details that we would surely have missed otherwise. Some inversions right left in the description of the stained glass windows but overall beautiful experience.
