Just did the Beyond the Cobblestones tour—what a gem!

So, I just finished the self-guided walking tour of Nantucket, and wow, it was incredible! The app is super user-friendly, and learning about the whaling history while walking down Main Street was fascinating. All the beautiful 18th-century homes made me feel like I was stepping back in time. It took us about 2.5 hours because we stopped a lot for pictures. Anyone else done this? What were your favorite parts?
