  Learning about the fascinating history at your own pace was fantastic. The app worked perfectly; just follow the guide as it narrates the story of the old German settlement. You can pause to explore the stops or enjoy the journey more.

  Great way to see the city.

  This was a fantastic way to explore the city. It was affordable and free from crowds. I appreciated being able to stop the tour whenever I wanted to visit a historic site, restaurant, or shop, then easily resume when ready. I'm eager to experience this in other cities.

  Interesting 1 mile flat walking tour of Milwaukee!!

  The tour guide had an incredible voice that reminded me of Morgan Freeman. I appreciated being able to keep my phone in my pocket while using AirPods, as the app tracked my location. It was a fascinating tour where I gained a lot of insight into Milwaukee's history, and I even reached the Public Market just in time for dinner.

  Fun Alternative If You Want to Move at Your Own Pace

  I recently tried an audio self-guided tour with my son, and while it took some getting used to, I enjoyed the experience overall. The instructions for moving between locations were a bit unclear, so I chose to enter each stop into maps individually and start the recording once I arrived. The flexibility to pause and resume the tour at our convenience, without the need for small talk with a guide, was refreshing. It served as a great alternative to conventional tours, and the selected sights were quite captivating. We even took a break halfway through for a nap before completing the second part, which made the day much more manageable.

  What a (surprising) and Lovely Day!

  We arrived in Chicago to meet a friend, but when those plans fell through, we scrambled to find something to do. A self-guided walking tour of Milwaukee just a short drive away sounded appealing, so we decided to go for it. It turned out to be one of the best tours we have ever experienced, and we now have a fondness for Milwaukee. The tour guide was both engaging and informative, with detailed and straightforward directions. We appreciated the option to pause the commentary to explore, grab a meal, or shop at our leisure. What started as an hour-long tour evolved into a 5-hour adventure discovering all that Milwaukee has to offer, and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment. It was a wonderful day.
