Thinking about gifting the Boston GPS Guided Tour – any thoughts?

I’ve been eyeing this Highlights and History of Boston tour for a friend’s birthday. The idea of a self-guided tour sounds cool, especially being able to go at your own pace. I love that it covers both colonial history and modern projects like the Big Dig. Has anyone tried it? Is it easy to follow?

Just did the Boston audio tour! Here’s my take.

I just finished the Highlights and History of Boston tour and it was awesome! It took me about 3 hours since I stopped at a few places for photos. The GPS feature is super handy. I didn’t have to look at my phone much, just listened and walked. I highly recommend it if you want to explore Boston casually!
