Due to some sights being closed, there was only one part of the tour that involved any walking, and that was at the very beginning - to see the North Bridge. So was quirky - kept replaying parts previously heard. There was less content than I had expected.

Dan, it’s disappointing that closures during your visit impacted your experience with my Battle of Lexington and Concord Driving & Walking Audio Tour. I always recommend checking the official site ahead of time to avoid these situations. The good news is that your tour is valid for a year after booking so that you can revisit and explore more thoroughly next time. If there’s specific content you felt was missing, I’d love to hear your thoughts and consider it for future updates. Plus, there’s a “Learn More” section with deeper insights at each stop if you want to dive further!
