A great way to discover Houston! - Nice visit. The walking routes between each stage were not too long and the audio explanations of the monuments were very interesting; Easy to follow directions to the next point. The time for the visit was well estimated. A great way to discover Houston! To do.

Nice independent way to understand the city's history - We walked the ground and saw the city, both from its humble inception time, some of the buildings that shaped it's culture, to the present glory of it many sky scrapers today. We saw the people, including the many who call the streets home, we spoke to some who are proud to live here and work in such a dynamic place. The Tour was memorable, but be ready for a lot of walking and standing. If you aren't able to hike for 4 miles on flat ground, you may be hurting at the end of this tour. Also the software provided is great and has a few automation features to make it all simple to follow, but it doesn't work all the time and we ended up having to control it's features manually and at the end were able to complete the tour okay.

Happy not so happy - I don’t have a memorable experience. It’s $20 dollars that won’t be seen again. The address given wasn’t near the staring location so the app wasn’t used.
