We thought this was fabulous and would recommend it as the way to go for anybody. You get so much information and can go at your own pace. We took a lunch break and then went back in the afternoon. I also liked how it started in town and then out to the battlefield.

I have been talking up your app to others. It’s great. I like the detailed route instructions and the fun and educational information provided at each site and along the way. I don’t think I will tour anywhere without checking if the area is covered.

This was a great way to tour the area. Plenty of chance to stop and get out to see things in detail. Wonderful.

Excellent and easy way to explore the battlefield at one’s own pace. Highly recommended

Everything was better than my expectations. There is nothing’s I would change
