RAVE REVIEWS:
“This was an amazing way to walk the Freedom Trail!!! The tracking through the GPS was spot on and it was having all the information provided on all the points!!!”
“I did not know a lot about the American revolutionary war and without overwhelming me, it brought the events of the time to life for me”
"The freedom trail tour was great. Wife and I shared a pair of wireless earbuds which I recommend. The tour is broken into many small sections which automatically stayed as we walked to the next point on the trail. It all worked perfectly, was extremely easy to use and very informative.

Best way to see the Freedom Trail at your own pace!

We loved doing the self-guided walking tour of the Freedom Trail. It was the perfect way to explore Boston’s historic sites without feeling rushed by a large group. The self-guided map was very easy to follow, taking us through all the major Revolutionary War landmarks like the Paul Revere House and the USS Constitution. Being able to stop for photos whenever we wanted made it a much better experience than a formal tour. If you're looking for an affordable Boston tour that hits all the Freedom Trail highlights, definitely go the self-guided route!

My mother and I were looking for something new to do, so we decided to walk The Freedom Trail. I absolutely loved using this app. It was seamless, informative, and operated perfectly. We both very much enjoyed listening to the narrator, and pairing the app with a beautifully sunny day in Boston!
Almost no content, waste of $$

After every stop we looked at each other and said “that’s it?” This app has a great idea but delivers almost no content and information while doing the Freedom Trail. I was expecting more history and info than 2 sentences. We had lots of time between stops that the app could have added way more details about where we were. Wasted opportunity. Such a disappointment and it was not cheap. Find an alternative.
Wonderful addition to my trip!

I had done the hop on hop off bus the first full day of my trip in Boston. I wasn’t sure what to do the second day but decided to get up early and walk the freedom trail. This guide was perfect! It provided guidance, direction, interesting information, and little stories for while I was walking. I also added on the Bunker Hill tour at the end. I had a great time! I highly recommend touring the USS Constitution ship.
Work well

I love this app! I wear hearing aids that have blue tooth. The guided tour plays right to my hearing aids and I don’t miss a thing by not being able to hear a tour guide. I’m able to spend as much or as little time as I want at each stop. I will be using this product for all future travel spots. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Great use of technology and a wonderful tour

This was better than expected. The Freedom Trail is cool anyway as a path through Boston but the geofenced navigation in the app and the interesting information made this an easy $10. Shared an AirPod with my nephew and we did the whole thing with a few stops in between.
