Never received email for the tour.$14.99 rip off. Will never recommend anything to do with Trip Advisor. Just hoping I stop payment in time. Still have not received the email.

Good tool for touring the battlefield. With so much history here, this narrated tour was great to be able to ride through without getting in and out of our vehicle. Definitely worth it to have the app.

The concept of self guided tour is awesome. Loved it. Great insights on the war. I don't know to use maps on a phone so i got a bit lost during the tour. Great tour and app though. Will definitely try more tour and recommend to everyone.
