    Epic fail

    laurie_d, May 2024
    App would not work properly!!! Very frustrated! We would not recommend this tour. We ended up just guiding ourselves.

    Response from Host, May 2024

    Sorry to hear the app wasn't working smoothly, Laurie! The tours are designed to guide you from the starting point, so if you started somewhere else, it might've gotten confused. Our support team is generally on hand from 5 AM to 5 PM EST in case of glitches. In the meantime, I can get you a full refund. Please send us a refund request or shoot me an email.

    Great tour

    Stephanie_C, Sep 2023
    Clara Barton- sad she got a plaque but not a statue. The observation tower and bloody lane views- mind blowing and so very sad at the same time!

    Response from Host, Sep 2023

    Stephanie, it's heartening to hear that you had a moving experience with my Historic Battlefields Audio Tour.

Safe and insightful travels ahead!
