The walking directions were easy to follow and there was a photo for each stop so you would know you were at the right spot. The stories were interesting and well told. Overall this was a great app.

I loved the entire tour but particularly enjoyed Kelly Ingram Park. I think I would have enjoyed the tour even better had I not gone on a Sunday to find out everything (all buildings) was closed so I couldn't properly explore the way the tour suggested.

Great history. Really brought the experience to life. Had a bit of technical trouble initially but a phone call to support resolved it quickly. Highly recommend
