Thinking of gifting the Savannah audio tour! Anyone try it?

I'm planning to surprise my mom with the Chippewa Square to Forsyth Park audio tour for her birthday! She loves history and Savannah is her favorite city. I heard the app is easy to use and the tour is flexible. Has anyone done this? Any tips on what to wear or where to park?

Just finished the self-guided tour and it was awesome!

I just did the Chippewa Square to Forsyth Park audio tour and wow, it exceeded my expectations! The stories were so engaging, especially about the Girl Scouts. I did it on a sunny day and took my time lingering at each square. Totally recommend it to anyone visiting Savannah!
