Finally, the app details a handpicked selection of RESTAURANTS & CAFES, many located near key sights. There’s also a little on SHOPS & SHOPPING with special emphasis on the many exceptional MARKETS.

Great starting place for planning

This app is well-organized with a lot of great information in one place. I appreciate the author’s honesty about which museums to visit! The organization around activities (e.g., archeology) is very helpful, too, for those of us with specific interests.
