Really enjoyed the tour. The only problem was at the beginning where we were in areas where the speed limit was more than 25 and the narration got confusing. We had to turn around a couple of times but once we were out on the battlefield, it was wonderful. We were blessed with a beautiful day and even met a few locals who gave us even more history of the area.

Easy! Not tech savy, but no problems using it. Download before you go. Can't believe I've been visiting NP without it! The more I use it, the more comfortable I'll feel venturing out on some of the other detours on the map and getting back to my designated tour without issue.

We did the tour from the West entrance. What a great self guided tour. Loved the narrator. Not only was it precise and easy to follow but very informative on the area and the history of the park. If you prefer the freedom of being in your own vehicle, and guiding yourself, I would highly recommend this tour. It really was great.
