    Wonderful information! I'm a little directionally challenged, and it took me a while to realize I had to keep going back to the map to know how to proceed in the transition from one audio file to the next. It rained heavily the day we went, so We were only able to get to stop 22, but was really impressed with this.

    We honestly did not get a chance to explore much on our own (we booked too many tours), but the bit we did listen to was great. I probably would have preferred doing the self guided.
