The beginning of the tour was great. The map was at times difficult to follow, especially when we were instructed to turn in Church Street ( which doesn’t exist). When the tour passed Plymouth Rock, the narrator spent most of the time talking about the structure over the rock, and if the narrator even mentioned the rock, we both missed it. Since there is no signage, it would be easy to miss the most important part if the tour.

Evelyn, I’m so glad my Plymouth Pilgrims Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour added to your experience with its stories. Just to clarify, Church Street is right after Burial Hill Cemetery on the left if you’re following the route from the starting point. You may have missed some parts of the tour, but the good news is that my product is valid for a year so you can listen to the stories at home or whenever you want. Let me know if you have any questions!

We really enjoyed Lexington Battlegreen because the information at the town visitor center and the tavern, which helped make it more real. We really wish other sites would have been open to visit as well.
