Remained intact - I am very pleased that this church has remained intact and still operational. They usually turn historical artifacts into museums by changing their nature, but here they have managed to preserve it!

Civil Rights Walking Tour, Self Guided - It was a great tour that we could do at our own pace while visiting all of the great Civil Rights places right in Montgomery. It was so affordable, easy to follow, and just a great tour with fabulous narration.

Nice tour. Rent a scooter instead of walking! - Great narration and informative. Appreciated the route and information shared. I would recommend renting a scooter to travel along the route and listen. The roads are relatively empty in the late afternoon/evening.
