The Nashville self directed app was fantastic! It was a great way to wrap up a business trip by exploring a city new to me, when I was available (and could pause when needed). GREAT GUIDE!

Got everything set up b4 we left g or tge tour... parked and started our walk to the "starting point" tried to follow directions given by app... HA! It led us in circles up hills and never led us to the address listed. There are mot many posted addresses so it was tough to even know where we were at all. After a few blocks we gave up. Waste of money.

Hi Laura We're sorry to hear you had an unsatisfactory experience. This is a highly-rated tour with an average of 4,8/5 from over 50 raters. The starting point for the tour is in front of a landmark building in Downtown Nashville, making it easy to find. From there, once the audio is started, you'd receive verbal and on-screen directions, and there's a map on your screen, to help you navigate the route. Kind regards, Alicia
