      There were no bikes only...
      Rebekah_T, Apr 2022
      There were no bikes only scooters Available to rent and the recording was out of sink. Also it was sad to see so many crazy homeless people at the spots it sent us too. I didn’t want my child to see scary people with such sad situations while trying to take a needed vacation.
      Horrible experience.

      I have done similar tours in other cities and this was so disappointing. We couldn't stop and start the app. The app froze and we couldn't start over. I would like a refund.

      Hi Martha, We're really sorry you had such a frustrating experience. We've issued a refund. You should be notified by Viator. It looks like there were two issues here, and they combined to make using the app extremely difficult: 1. Android 11 has changed how we get permission to use your location and we've spotted – and now fixed – a bug that you experienced when you tried to resume the tour. 2. This tour's first and final location are in the same place, and the app confused the start of the tour with the end of the tour. We've also fixed this, not just for the Gold Rush tour, but through an audit of all tours with first and final locations that are close together. It seems like your disappointment was entirely justified, but it is worth saying that the majority of our users love VoiceMap and we have an average rating of 4.6/5 from over 8,000 ratings. This is partly because we value feedback like this, and we act on it as quickly as possible. So thanks Martha. I hope you'll try VoiceMap again at some stage!
