A nice sightseeing walk - I didn’t think I would enjoy this but my wife wanted to do it so we did. It was actually very good. Initial problem loading the app and booking reference but then worked well. It does involve quite a bit of walking but you see quite a bit of Norwich we may have missed otherwise.

Best tour I’ve ever done - This was the most magical tour. We so enjoyed seeing bits of Norwich that we would have missed had we not done the tour. The history was fabulous and we learned so much. Gorgeous little alleyways and amazing architecture. It was magical!

An interesting and enjoyable way to spend an afternoon. - Allow plenty of time if you think you might want to investigate any of the places of interest. We're going back to the Cathedral snd Strangers Hall another day. The history information and story on the app is interesting and really adds to the walk. The instructions are easy to follow though we did lose signal around the cathedral so downloading the instructions would have been a good idea.

Excellent way to explore and learn some history about the City - Four of us completed this event, two had lived in Norfolk for over 15 years, two of us were visiting and yet we all learned so much, it was a really great way to explore the city

Good way to see the sights of Norwich - Visiting Norwich on my own, this was an excellent way to get to see the sights and learn a bit of the history of the city. Directions were easy to follow and it would be great to do with children. Only issue was on the first challenge, which I couldn’t see as the building is currently being renovated and is covered in scaffolding.

It was ok - It was ok. I liked the route and stories provided for each place we had seen. Maybe it will be better to make this experince audible. So you don't need to look all the time in the phone because it is distract you. And also as we were walking a lot and the day was very bright and suuny my phone adjusted brightness of the screen. As a reult, I couldn't finish the tour because my phone's battery died on the last chapter.

Disappointed - Unfortunately we were unable to access the app and few places were up for refurbishment and couldn’t go in. So just went around trying to visit some of the sites that were open and accessible

Don’t bother, walk your own path - Unable to access ticket, time consuming faff downloading this app and that app, unable to navigate Questo app. Went for a walk using paper map and asked questions through engaging with real people that live and work in Norwich instead, far more interesting. Don’t bother, go your own way. Waste of time and money
