This is the cutest little town. We enjoyed the walking tour. We got a little “turned around” on the tour. It would be neat if the app could tell you when you are off course. We loved the history and even got to listen to the Park Ranger give his Rock Talk on Plymouth Rock. Great experience overall.

The walking tour was very nice. At one point (after #17) the route to the next point wasn't clear. And sometimes the narration didn't start automatically. Other than that, the tour worked quite well. I would definitely recommend it.

Thank you so much! Will look into adding clearer directions after 17 ASAP and enlarging the radius so it plays automatically. So glad you enjoyed the tour! We have more self-guided experiences at ActionTourGuide.com if you’re planning future travel. Thanks again!
