Do not recommend!
We have used audio tours in the past and have been very pleased. Not so with this one. The commentary was apparently supposed to sync with the location—but it didn’t and it was near impossible to get the track to be at the place. The audio has a lot of sound effects (horse hooves) but very minimal information about what you are seeing at a location. We were very disappointed because we wanted to learn more about the castle

Not that good
The app worked well but the content of the audio was not great. A lot of time was spent on sound effects and not a lot of content was included.
