Chill afternoon in Indianapolis. - The tour took us to places of great interest with very interesting historical facts. Questions to answer before revealing the next point of interest is a definite plus!! We returned to other places around the points of interest in the tour took us to further explore. All in all a great value.

Fascinating facts and sites at our own pace - Great value, convenient, a wealth of information, and good directions between sites. We went to the top of the soldiers and sailors monument (It’s free!) and had a great view. We encountered a local on the steps of the WWI monument who told us how much he loves Indy and about the magnificent library. We weren’t able to make it to all the sites but hope to in the next couple days before we leave town.

Great Way to See Indianapolis - We were visiting our son at Purdue and decided to spend the day in Indianapolis. This was a great way to learn more about the city. It was fun and interactive. My other son uses a wheelchair and this is very accessible.

Interesting walk in Indianapolis - We enjoyed it as we could spend the time at different places that we wanted. It was clear to follow. The sun obviously helped!

Fun day in Indy! - I have lived in Indiana for 30 years and I learned new information about places in Indianapolis that I had been before. We walked by a few places I had never visited. We also stopped and explored other buildings around the ones on the tour, so it took us longer than two hours. I thought the whole tour was a good length and worth doing.

Insightful - It started off fine and insightful. Stop to get something to eat and somehow the app stop working. Tired to get back to the tour and we had no luck. ☹️ Will try again, on next vist.

Very informative, but. - App shut down when we stopped for food and drinks. Before the app stopped, we were totally enjoying the directions and information 😀. I will definitely be taking another tour, and hopefully, the quirk will be resolved. My money was refunded promptly, which was good because who knows when we'll be back. Overall, this is a good tour.

Scavenger hunt was ok and can be improved. - We purchased this self tour and didn’t get to finish it due to weather. Some things can be improved like adding audio to this scavenger hunt would be better for this experience.

Terrible experience. Consistently getting logged off. - GPS location not accurate. Hints and clues were vague. A paper map would’ve been better because maps have pictures. 6 hours of trying. Google maps didn’t quite line up with the page’s’ descriptions. Constantly getting logged out. Two others in our group we’re getting logged out too. Absolutely terrible experience. Certainly tainted my trust in TripAdvisor and Viator. After trying several attempts, we ended up wandering around. Convention center had maps and guides that were free and much more useful.
