User Reviews

Users consistently report POPGuide as unreliable: frequent download/sign-in failures, audio guides that are poorly synchronized or sparse, and slow or crashing performance. Content quality varies by venue and often does not match the museum layout. Several reviews cite poor refund handling and customer support. Overall, the experience is frustrating, with limited usable audio at major sites like the Louvre, Versailles, Vatican, and the Colosseum.
Pros
Cons
  • Frequent download/install and authentication problems (cannot load the app, sign-in issues, language download failures).
  • Audio guides are often inaccurate or not synced to the actual exhibits, with limited or missing information at many sites.
  • Major performance and stability issues (slow loading, freezing, crashes, nonfunctional controls).
  • Content and map discrepancies (stops on the map do not match the museum layout; audio does not align with the exhibits).
  • Refund and customer service issues (no refunds when venues are closed; poor policy communication and resolution).

We visited Paris and bought guided tour tickets to the Louvre. Be aware the guided tour is this app and they are reading a script. Tickets are substantially more money than if you went directed through the website. Their customer service is non-existent. They pry on tourists. Do not download do not go through FEELTHECITYTOURS.COM
