Well worth it - It was very easy to use, needed no input from us as it used gps to get the guide’s descriptions at just the right time as we walked the route. Clear and informative information given at each point. Great value and you can do at your own speed.

New to Nashville - 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!

A Great Overview - I loved going at my own pace and stopping for pictures along the route. Learning the history, hearing recommendations for restaurants and bars, and getting the overview of downtown were really helpful. My favorite stops were the walking bridge, the Country Music Walk of Fame, and Goo Goos, but just seeing the scene along Broadway was such fun!

Roaming Nashville with a guide - Great way to get to know Nashville. It is nice that you can pause it at any time, move it back if you didn’t hear it well, or just keep going!

Worth every penny! - This walking tour was Spectacular. Fantastic narration and interesting facts. A perfect amount of walking with plenty of opportunity to pause and enjoy the area. We stopped for some drinks and dinner along the way and didn’t start the walk until 6p and LOVED ending the tour with the neon lights on broadway. The app functioned well- took me a minute to figure out how to redeem the TripAdvisor code but you can also just buy it through the VoiceMap app and skip the hassle. 10/10 recommended

Nashville audio tour - Tour was good. Easy way to learn about Nashville. could pause the audio which was nice. Setting up in the app was terrible. You didn’t send me a valid code for the VoiceMap app so I had to call customer service to receive it.

it was useless - hard to get on phone, took over 1 hour. after the Ryman theater there was no communication, did a better job walking the street and seeing everything myself

WTF - not a simple process - 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.
