Highly recommend you , wonderful experience! - It was really nice. I didn’t know before that Montgomery was that rich and deep in history. I just thought it was like most historical places in the South. I like that the tour is self-paced and you choose whenever you want to get started. I would definitely do self paced GPS again ! Very informative and I liked they also would play actual voice recordings (MLK, jr.) on some landmarks.

For the Culture - The navigation in the app was paced well and accurate. I recommend visiting the museums along the way to cool off. The Rosa Parks museum was exceptional. Although it's not on the tour, visit the Alabama Bicentennial Park which is a spectacular bronze statue Park right before the Alabama capital.

Very cool experience.... - Very cool experience. Little quirky getting it set up downloading the app not paying for it twice etc, and had trouble viewing the pictures that were talked about. Walked to some places and i guess i didn't get to the correct spot so I would fast forward it to get the narrator to come back on. I liked it though.
