    I liked being able to do a walking tour by just popping in my headphones and having someone tell me where to go and what I was seeing. Good length and good information.

    I liked the self-paced tour. Nice price. Covered a lot of area. App worked very well. I usually prefer doing a tour with a small group but this was a nice option.

  • A great and quick way to see the city

    We enjoyed the small bits of history with the walk. Unfortunately, we were to early to go into any museums and had to leave before the end of the tour. For the price, would do it again.

  • A very knowledgeable and reliable companion in exploring the city
