Outdated

This tour feels outdated. Difficult to hear and most importantly the get directions button does not work!! So kind of get lost at the beginning. I will be requesting a refund

Incredible tour

The professor is a compelling speaker and very knowledgeable. App is a little clunky but the information is stellar!

Not sure this is still supported

The get direction but does nothing making it difficult to easily get to the next spot. I went with Action tours because there are a lot more feature that work for $14.99

Glitch in directions to stops

The link to give directions to stops will not work.

Great tour

Definitely 5 stars

Audio ends early and skips

The audio clips end early and skip most of the track for each auto tour stop. At first it appears to work and then the issue starts as soon as you get to auto tour stop 1. The issue persists on the rest of the tracks. It was a waste of money and didn’t work. We ended up having to pay for another app that worked. The app developer has not updated on over three years, so assume these bugs will not be fixed. The large majority of the glowing reviews are from, you guessed it, three to four years ago.

A Gettysburg must!!

This guided tour is a awesome way to further your understanding of the battle on the battlefield. It’s great for those who are just getting started with Civil War study.

Official Tour

There are other audio tours, but this one is official and the best. It has park notifications and we loved the extra stories told. Following the signs on the roads was easy too. I didn’t buy the book in the gift store but I wish I did!

Ok

Tour was good, when working. We had bought the guide and a code at the Visitors Center. I downloaded the app and could not find a place to enter the code. So spent $35 for that and then another $9.99 because the code couldn’t get entered.

Great

Good speed of speaker, good directions.

Thank you!

So glad I can use the code from the book to get the tour on the app! Been to Gettysburg plenty of times and I like this tour a lot.

Annoying and unuseful

The overly melodramatic narrative was annoying and useless while driving. I wanted an app that would describe where I was and what happened there. IF this app intended to do this, it was borderline useless. If it wasn’t then it is false advertising.

A good way to see Gettysburg

This is a very good way to see the battle/battlefield of Gettysburg. The narrator is easily understood and is pleasant to listen to. The only criticism I have is that it is (at first) unclear when and where to move you car.

At the NC Memorial

Great time with Family on 2 July

Amazing self-tour!!!

Just make sure to use Google Maps instead of Apple Maps. 10.5/10

Great app

I have been at Gettysburg several times in the last 35 years and this is the best experiences I’ve had. It can use some technological improvements.

Experience enhancer

I encountered an issue with the app, which was resolved by the developer. The app is great and really helps to tie the events that happened with what you see as you tour the battle fields.

Response from developer

Thanks for letting us know and apologies for the issue you encountered. The app was just updated - we are regularly updating and improving the app. It appears the purchase restoration did not transfer from your old phone. We can certainly help you restore tour.

Gettysburg Story

What a great app!!! We love all of the stories and Stephen Lang’s narration sounds like the voice of Gos
