Just did the Yale Walking Tour and loved it!

I just completed the Private Historic Yale Smart Phone Self Guided Walking Tour with my partner and wow, it was awesome! We got to explore the old campus and even paused at the Yale Art Gallery to see the Van Gogh. The app was super easy to use, and we loved being able to go at our own pace. Highly recommend for anyone visiting New Haven!

Thinking of gifting the Yale Walking Tour!

I’m considering getting this tour for my parents for their anniversary since they love history. Is it really worth it? I read about the secret societies and the art gallery stop, but I'm wondering if older folks can keep up with the walking. Any thoughts?
