Perfect Pace to Explore Beautiful Savannah

5.00This self-guided audio tour was hands down the best decision we made during our visit! It offered the perfect mix of engaging stories and the freedom to explore Savannah’s charming streets at our own pace. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a flexible, high-quality experience!
Wonderful interactive app!

5.00As we strolled through historic Savannah, this app gave us pertinent information regarding the sites we visited as we visited them. Although the app provided directions for a walking tour, we used it as we casually strolled through historic Savannah. The app was fully interactive with our current location. By downloading the app ahead of time and familiarizing myself with it, I was able to view the storyline, preview the sites, and listen to the audio or read the text. Since I have access to the app for 1 year, I reviewed the information again on our way home from Savannah & intend to use it on a revisit. Well worth the investment and the few minutes of time acquainting myself with it! Thank you!
Too Confusing and Incorrect

1.00This claims you can start from anywhere and it will find you and pull that up, however, not true. We tried to use it in several spots and it was always on a different number and not giving information on what we were in front of. Save your money and get a map and use that. We saw more people trying to make it work and everyone we saw was frustrated also. Totally not worth anything.
Maybe next time

3.00I really can’t rate this one. I paid for snd downloaded it, but never used it. The cod area is lovely and we ended up just walking around with a free map from the visitor’s center.

5.00This was a good tour that allowed you to go at your own pace. It is rather long so allow plenty of time. The directions are really good most of the time. We did have to make some detours around construction.
Good, interesting way to get steps!

5.00I absolutely loved this tour! this was my first time doing an audio, and I don't think I will ever go back to a group tour again. so great to be able to do it on your own timeline, duck into a store if you wish to, get right back at it. It was really great with really clear instructions. You do not even have to keep an eye on your phone the directions were very clear, so you can just look around and take in all of the information on the audio! Fantastic!
