Unusual Audio Tour of Geneva

I enjoyed it. Simple and cheap way to get a quick look at some key features. I'm only in town for a day and a half and I have other stuff to do, so it was ideal for me. Wasn't expecting the bad language - I don't care, I have a mouth like a sewer, but others might. I have a problem with app you have to download. It installed fine but the map didn't work. So I fudged it together by putting the landmarks into Google Maps and just listening to the commentary in the other app. It was fine, no big deal.

Does exactly what it says - easy to follow, amusing commentary and interesting landmarks. En route we visited the archaeological site under the cathedral, which was absolutely fantastic and well worth the 8 Euro entry fee, so do allow an hour at least to enjoy this. We parked in the Plaine de Plainpalais (nicest carpark ever), so decided to start the tour at the closest point, namely Batiens Pk. This was ok, however some of the explanations didn't work out-of-sequence, so I would recommend starting at number 1. We had planned to enjoy a drink in a cafe on the lakefront, but in the stretch covered by the tour, there were no cafés at all. (Probably because we visited in February, but it's worth being aware of this if you visit out of season.) We eventually found a little cafe in Bations park, and enjoyed a crepe and a waffle (with disgusting hot "chocolate") then had a game of chess on one of the giant chess sets. Julien stayed in contact and was brilliant throughout. He suggested parking options and helped us navigate the app. It's worth spending a bit of time getting it all set up ahead of your visit, including downloading it onto your phone. We were visiting from France, and one of our phones wouldn't work in Switzerland 🙄
