Arles exceptional antiquities and shopping - For older folks, walking in a day may take over 6 hours. Arles is only slightly up and down. Museums, Roman sights and shopping take time to experience. The guide is helpful with the sights and information along the way. We are going over two days.

In the footsteps of the Romans and with the eyes of van Gogh - In the footsteps of van Gogh and the Romans - impressive guided tour with lots of information about the history of Arle, which was shaped by the Romans and captured by van Gogh in many pictures

Loved the Paintings-to-Places Connections - Seeing how the city inspired Van Gogh’s most famous works was magical. The app did a great job linking his paintings with the real places we walked through.

Nice Alternative to a Guided Group - I prefer exploring alone, so this was perfect. I could pause for a coffee or photos while still enjoying the stories of Van Gogh’s Arles years.

Emotional and Moving - Standing in front of the hospital garden and listening to the story of Van Gogh’s time there gave me goosebumps. The app’s commentary added depth without overwhelming detail.

Seamless and Easy to Follow - The app was well designed and the directions accurate, which is important when you’re walking around a new city. I enjoyed being able to go at my own pace without missing context.

Nothing special about this tour, wouldn’t reccomend it! - Not worth the time! Very little real insights or historic information about VG or Arles. The weakest aspect of the tour was its design…a one-way tour is too difficult to plan your day around and if you did it “out and back” it would be a 4 mile/4 hour tour.
