Not a bad afternoon - The price is right and the host speaks clearly. The GPS feature is also helpful. I got lost a few times and wore myself out backtracking because I was on foot but all in all a good experience. I would recommend it.

The way to go! - This was the way to go! It was so much better than wandering around on our own not knowing what we were looking at or its history, and it was so much less expensive than a live guided tour! We especially liked that we could stop and pause and shop or eat at our own pace instead of following a Guide.

Fun. Informative. Easy To Use - I was so happy to see WalknTours has Asheville tours on their app!! I loved their tours in Boston and Santa Fe and I was equally as pleased with the Asheville tour. I love I can go at my own pace and even pause the tour if I want to visit a shop or museum along the way. GPS worked perfect and I learned so much. Who knew there was so much history here!! Now, it's time to take the ghost tour!!

Asheville walking tour - Difficult connection-I would recommend for solo traveler only as it is difficult to hear, find the spots and deal w walking in traffic sharing a device-will not Do this kind of tour again. That is my preference. The Viator portion was good.
