      Fun opportunity. There...
      Antoinette_R, Jul 2023
      Fun opportunity. There are 18 stops. Best to rent golf cart. Easy to use. Lots of history to learn about on the island. You get to see the AMe Zion church. Teach about the cemetery which is the highest point on the island. Lots of cute things to learn. Clear voice to understand.

      Enlightening tour
      Daphne_J, Oct 2021
      The narration was wonderful. The stories told seemed to bring the sites to life. We drove the tour. I think it was too long to fully walk it. The only drawback for me was that the written directions to the next site did not alwas seem to be accurate. We had to resort to GPS several times.
      Response from Host, Oct 2021
      I'm so glad you enjoyed the narration! I'll doublecheck written directions--and you'll be glad to hear we'll soon upgrade our user system for much better GPS! Thanks again
