Easy to follow, interesting history, worth doing in Savannah! The guide narration was clear and easy to understand. Nice tidbits too unrelated to history like a cool bookstore and restaurant. Very cool the way the gps links up with it.

Thoroughly enjoyed. Gave us the history of Savannah and each square on our own time, at our own pace. Highly recommend
