Thinking of gifting the Wright Brothers audio tour!

I'm considering gifting the Wright Brothers Carolina Dunes Self-Guided Driving Audio Tour for my parents' anniversary. They love history and the Outer Banks. I’m curious if anyone's done this and can share their experience? How was the audio? And did it feel like they missed anything by not being in a guided group?

Just did the Wright Brothers audio tour!

I just got back from the Wright Brothers Carolina Dunes tour and wow, it was so much fun! The storytelling was captivating, and the stops were beautiful, especially Corolla Beach. We spent the whole day there, and it was worth every penny (which is nothing!). I’d highly recommend it!
