5.00My friend and I had a wonderful experience exploring Savannah’s Historic District with the self-guided tour via Viator! We loved being able to go at our own pace without the pressure of a group or fixed schedule. The experience was exactly as described in the reviews I read beforehand—informative, engaging, and truly enjoyable. The VoiceMap app was easy to use and impressively accurate with location tracking, guiding us seamlessly from one point of interest to the next. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys discovering a new city on their own terms.

2.00Not very engaging, technology not as good as other apps for knowing where you are. Basically just covers the squares/monuments along Bull.

5.00It was very fun and informative. We enjoyed learning some of the history of Savannah and Georgia. The audio was very helpful in locating the landmarks.
Not what I thought it was and wasted my money.

3.00Thought this would be a driving tour around to see and hear about the homes in Savannah. It's not that at all.

1.00Too confusing to follow. Not helpful because it was hard to follow. I wouldn’t use it again. Each stop was too long a description.
