Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Best audio guide I have ever purchased! The narrator had lived in Leipzig and was very knowledgeable and easy to understand. I love that it was GPS enabled offline. Speaker would not only narrate the tour but tell you where to turn, etc. Make sure to download VoiceApp. Tour will be found there on your smartphone.

This was a great tour. Narration and directions were very good. You need good phone service. Ear buds a must. Plan on taking longer than 2 hrs to see, photo, and admire what you're seeing. Did a tour of Stasi Museum, which was right on the tour. It was easy to resume.

An excellent, easy-to-manage overview of a small slice of Lepzig’s DDR history. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour, and stopped midway for Christmas services at Thomas Kirche. I highly recommend this tour.

This audio tour (English) was an excellent introduction to Leipzig. We saw a few highlights we wanted to visit more in depth. The tour gave us a “lay of the land.” The tour also pointed out many interesting places that we would have missed otherwise. Great back stories to everything.
If you’re curious about what life was like in the former East Germany and how it came down, or just want an overview of Leipzig, this is the perfect tour for you.
It’s super easy to use this audio guide even if you’re not online. We highly recommend!

An excellent tour, very informative and easy to set up and use. I struggled to find English speaking tours in Leipzig and one I did book cancelled, so finding this was great. I went on to buy her book.

Great tour, easy to follow, nice introduction into some of Leipzig's past. I enjoyed the length. Tour is easy to pause if you want to spend more time in one place.

Well made, interesting walk past some of the relevant buildings in Leipzig. You see the city in a different way and still grab the ‘normal’ highlights
