As you walk through these streets, you will learn about its industrial past, encompassed mostly through its innumerable canals and storehouses all over.

Could not access the guide.

I'm sure it would have been fine but I couldn't access it on the day. I'm not a dinosaur in tech terms but I simply couldn't access the guide. Frustrated and short changed I gave up and did my own thing

Far too complicated to get it running. I’m a software engineer and it took me more than half an hour including support chat. Code did not work…
Battery of mobile was empty after a bit more than an hour.
