Walking tour - It was perfect for a history walk around the city taking your time. Easy to use and allowed me to stop for coffee and stroll through the squares of Savannah.

Went with a friend that had never been. I’ve been several times & planned the trip. She was wowed! - Beautiful city! Like no other. So much history! So much to see & do! So much shopping! So much great food! Spent 5 days there. Could’ve stayed for 10. Visited Tybee Island, Jekyll Island & St. Simons Island too! Wow!

Great alternative to group tours - The audio tour was a really great alternative to get history without having to be around other people in a big group. We had ear buds and my friend and I each put one in and started the tour. A great experience!

Good self guided tour to historic Savannah - Good stories, easy to follow directions, brought us to good places of interest. Reserving and downloading the right one wasn't as quick and easy as it should be. They need to simplify this so you aren't wading through all the choices trying to find the right one and with a simple download button.

So great we bought for another city - The audio tour was great! Great stops. Great history lesson. Very easy to understand the person speaking. The directions to each stop were easy to follow. It includes a map that shows you where you are with a red line showing you where to go so that you can easily follow that and see if you get off track. You can pause the tour to go do other things ( we toured an old house) ir even rewind what the speaker says in 15 second increments. We liked it so much we bought one for our next stop in Charleston.

Nice little tour - I enjoyed learning about downtown Savannah at my own pace. It was easy to get the app to play the audio. I had one issue with the recording during the tour, but I found a workaround. Some music from history would make a good background, or fill the times while there is no voice.

Not helpful - It was really hard to keep up with what was being said on the locations. A great deal of personal information from the speaker that could have been minimized. I ended up shutting it off after the first location, used a map and enjoyed the locations much more. Honestly, would not recommend.
