What Our Customers Are Saying

What a lovely option compared to paper maps ! I was able to keep walking while learning as I passed folks stopped, looking at map, confused - I felt a bit guilty that I was so “plugged in”- so I stopped and told a few strangers about this great walking tour option.

Thank you for the great tour! Unfortunately it was raining hard the day we were in Charlottetown, but we still managed to do a lot, and really appreciated the opinion of virtual tour as we listened to the missed part while driving to NS. A lot of interesting info and facts, great way to explore the city.
