“Comodo il collegamento a Google Maps per raggiungere l’attrazione successiva. Le spiegazioni però sono molto basiche e piuttosto brevi. Avrei preferito contenuti più approfonditi e dettagliati, magari con qualche curiosità o aneddoto interessante. Nel complesso mi aspettavo qualcosa di più. Detto questo, per il prezzo che si paga (7€) è veramente basso, quindi nel complesso il rapporto qualità-prezzo resta comunque buono.”
