My wife and I just finished the walking tour of St. Louis and thought that it was wonderful. The directions were clear, the information was thorough and the descriptions as we progressed were so insightful not only of what we were seeing, but also the background of the buildings, the statues and the area.

This was a well done tour with facts and history being shred as you were walking to the tour. I appreciated the clear directions of “keep building on your left and walk towards street street”. It was helpful to keep you on track. I recommend turning the battery saver feature on from the beginning of your tour or potentially you will use all your phone battery.

This was my first virtual walking tour ever. It was amazing. The directions were clear and the information was incredibly interesting. I am so happy I discovered this app! I hope to see more tours get added to more cities like Berlin Germany.

Excellent walking tour of downtown Pittsburgh. We are planning our road trip based on available tour stops. Our next stop is Cincinnati. One advice: ensure your phone is fully charged, as the app drains your battery quickly. We parked near the last stop at Point State Park. Update 1: We made our way to Cincinnati. First: The Mt. Adams Historical Walking Tour. This tour offers a fun, engaging experience with amazing views of downtown Cincinnati. I had no idea this part of town was so vibrant! If you’re interested in history, you won’t be disappointed. Garage parking is available, but you can also park for free along the streets near Wareham Drive and Harch Street. Second, Cincinnati's Famous OTR Ghost Tour is another excellent walking tour. Although it's short, it's packed with intriguing facts. I strongly recommend experiencing the ghost tour at night to enhance your experience. While I didn't find it particularly scary, I learned much about Cincinnati's spooky past. Update 2: Stopped at Lousiville Old Town Louisville Ghost Tour: Exploring the Old Town of Louisville is a fantastic experience. I’ve visited Louisville several times, but I had no idea this part of town and its history existed. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the whole experience because we did the tour during the daytime. I recommend taking the tour at night and parking on Park Avenue. Update 3: Nashville Music City Tour Downtown Nashville was vibrant and lively. Every storefront had a live band performing, contributing to the energetic atmosphere. Unfortunately, the noise from city traffic, crowds, and the various live bands playing all your favorite country songs made it challenging to hear the audio from my phone. Despite this, it was another great experience, and we had a blast. Parking was difficult and expensive, so I recommend parking several blocks away from Broadway and walking to your starting point. Update 4: Memphis (Beale Street Experience and Civil Rights Walking Tour) The Civil Rights Walking Tour in Memphis is the best one yet. If you only have time for one tour, I highly recommend this one. It serves as a powerful reminder of how far we've come from some of our shameful past, and how far we still have to go. This tour evokes feelings of sadness but is also educational and enlightening. It’s mind-blowing to see why we still have hate in the world. If everyone could be humble, kind, and love one another, we would have no wars or discrimination. Beale Street was also a fun and entertaining experience. We visited in the mid-morning when many people were still sleeping off their adventures from the night before. Be sure to stop by A. Schwab for an old-fashioned root beer float. The gentleman who served us was a fourth-generation Schwab. Be sure to ask him about the history of Beale Street. Update 5: Jefferson, TX (Jefferson’s Famous Ghost Tour) We arrived in the late evening and couldn't pass up the chance to experience the tour near midnight. The entire town was empty, which added to the spookiness of the experience. While we didn’t see any ghosts or spirits, we did manage to spot Bigfoot. Yes, you read that right—Bigfoot! If you read the history of Jefferson, TX, it will give you a better understanding of what was once a vibrant town.

This was such a cool experience to do. A fun way to explore an unfamiliar city or area and learn some cool history. I’m considering buying the yearly because it was such an easy and fun way to learn so much about a new place. Highly recommend using if you want a self paced and leisurely tour. *Only thing I will highlight is my tour did not end where it started so keep that in mind being in an area you don’t know well and having to get back to your starting point.
