Just Did the Self Guided Walking Tour in Detroit - What a Blast!

I recently took the Self Guided Detroit's Spirit and History Tour and it was awesome! Starting at Buddy’s and grabbing a slice of their famous pizza made for a great kick-off. The app was easy to use; I felt like I was on a scavenger hunt discovering all these cool murals and parks. Perfect way to explore on my own schedule! Highly recommend it for anyone looking to experience Detroit's vibe. Just make sure to wear comfy shoes!

Thinking of Gifting the Detroit Walking Tour - Good Idea?

I’m thinking about gifting the Self Guided Detroit's Spirit and History Tour to my brother who loves history and pizza. Is the app really worth it? I’ve heard it can be a bit clunky. Also, how easy is it to park near Buddy’s? Would love any tips!
