Audio content itself was good but app was not great at adapting to me not sticking to precise route (where even being on wrong side of street meant missed updates). I’d have rather just had a written guidebook-style description of the buildings.

Great audio tour that tracks with your speed. Informative and made the walk down Wisconsin aAvenue more enjoyable. Would recommend highly to fans of turn of the century architecture.

As others said, accessing the app is quite confusing. I recommend you follow the emails/texts carefully. Also, my husband and I are retired so that may explain the confusion! Also, be sure to heed the warning to not pay twice for the audio tour. All that said, we loved this tour. The design is quite clever as a GPS is connected to the narrative so you don’t have to pause between buildings. The tour guide is wonderful: pleasant, instructive and entertaining. We loved all the stops and fell in love with Milwaukee.
