“Ze vonden het leuk op deze manier Gouda te ontdekken. Echt een aanrader. Wellicht iets duidelijker vermelden dat je niet bij de foto's moet blijven hangen, maar dat deze tijdens de gehele tocht gevonden moeten worden. (maar ik had de telefoon ook niet in mijn hand dus wellicht is er niet goed gelezen...).”
