Great walking tour! So much information and LOVED the ‘Learn More’ links included at the stops. In fact when we went to other areas on our trip we searched for walking tours by your company. Unfortunately there was not one available so did a different one and it was not nearly as good.
Audio Tour Confusing

The audio tour was somewhat confusing to follow. I’d pause it and it would start as soon as you moved. The voice in my ear made it difficult to communicate with others. Otherwise it provided helpful and interesting information. Although you could read most of the same information at the site.

Great self guided tour learning about Plymouth and the Pilgrims, and the Mayflower, & much more. Loved that we could take as much time as we wanted and not get rushed along in a big group tour.
Nice walk around town

We enjoy these self guided tours. It’s nice to be able to do side stuff during the tour and then pick right back up where you left off. This was shorter than previous ones we’ve done but was still vey informative and enjoyable.
It’s more than a rock in the mud!!!!

I had major issues with the app not starting when I would get to one of the areas. I had to keep starting it myself when I could figure out which stop I was at. It was alright for the price you pay.

The self guided tour was nice to have with information at hand. It went rather quickly and it was hard to follow the map while driving versus walking.
Good tour with a few glitches

The beginning of the tour was great. The map was at times difficult to follow, especially when we were instructed to turn in Church Street ( which doesn’t exist). When the tour passed Plymouth Rock, the narrator spent most of the time talking about the structure over the rock, and if the narrator even mentioned the rock, we both missed it. Since there is no signage, it would be easy to miss the most important part if the tour.

We really enjoyed Lexington Battlegreen because the information at the town visitor center and the tavern, which helped make it more real. We really wish other sites would have been open to visit as well.
