I bought two tickets: one for Santa Croce and one for Duomo. The instructions for Santa Croce sent by Headout were clear, but the instructions for Duomo were confusing. Headout instructed me to redeem the ticket, which I did, but when I arrived at the Duomo, a staff member told me that I didn't need to redeem the ticket and that I could use the voucher as my ticket. I had to wait in line for 20 minutes before I found this out. It would be a much better experience if the Headout team provided clear and comprehensive information about how to enter the Duomo, including which lines are for those with tickets and which lines are for those without tickets.

On the red line the driver kept turning off the commentary when he spoke and forgot to turn it back on so we didn't get any of the guided tour
