Ratings and Reviews
Amazing
Unequivocally amazing. 2-3 hours for the tour is way too short. Maybe it’s me being sentimental but I only got through to “little round top” in three hours. The weather was iffy but every stop was instructional and educational. I learned so much more than what I thought. There were some “misty” times along the route because of the desire of the union and confederates loosing so many for a cause and me being there with my oldest’s (17yo) first trip, a LOT of emotion.
As for the app it took three times to get it to go because It had to download (update) 36 files. Some of the negative reviews this could have been the problem [not a normal download].
The app worked flawlessly, even when I stopped and restarted along the route. I returned to Maine to relisten and relive the moments and there were no issues.
I can’t wait to do it again with my youngest.
Developer Response ,
"Unequivocally amazing." is high praise. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your review. This helps the Gettysburg Story reach more visitors - and hopefully they too can be moved by power of "what they did here" on the hallowed ground of Gettysburg. Glad you even listened to it on the trip back home! Be sure to check out the companion film too!
SO WORTH the $9.99!
My family and I had MLK Day off and wanted to do something social-distant and educational as a family. This app took us to all these slots and gave us a great history of each stop. This $10 spent was without a question worth it and, although directions may seem confusing at first in-app, for the most part you can just follow the red “Auto Tour” signs marking the roads and get to the various stops. I highly recommend this app.
Great family tour option - flexible & affordable
Great tour experience for our family during this socially distanced era. Spent several hours driving on the battlefield with this easy to use app. Listen to the story of the battle and get gps directions to each tour stop in this amazing National Park. Also we suggest you see the companion film to make the experience even more awesome and informative & get the kids guide that goes with the tour.
