We liked a lot the fun aspect of the tour. Make sure you have downloaded the tour before visiting Mycenae, there is no mobile signal.
Entertaining. The audio guide is a fun addition to the visit. In addition to many facts, you get an interesting and entertaining insight into the Greek mythology.
It’s almost impossible to find a guide there, gladly there is this audio tour. Great stories.
The audio has a lot of reference to the stories of the Gods. Some technical explanations on the building itself. With the reading of the panels on the spot it is very complete. Lets us appreciate the sight at its fair value. Available in English (British) only.
