We had a good time. Took over 2 hours. More enjoyable for the stroll and exercise, hitting all the main historical sites, rather than the content. We would have appreciated more historical knowledge than anecdotes. The app was well designed and directions were easy to follow. Although the app glitched a few times (stuck on a stop) and the "current location" feature stopped working after awhile. You only need one download for a group as you can play it on speaker, which was a bonus.
