TripAdvisor Reviews
Mimi on TripAdvisor 5 stars - "History Comes Alive with Walkntours"
"We did three tours around Boston on the WalknTour app and used our AirPods with our iPhones. It gave me a personal experience, which was enhanced by the Dig Deeper options for stories and more information. It was like I was traveling with Rick Steves—only in the US. "

Jill on TripAdvisor 5 stars - "Suprised! Great Value!"
"I loved the commentary! The music! Everything! It was a great way to learn more about the city and the history which is everywhere. It was easy to use. At first the app was a little glitchy but we got it to work for us."
