Good audio tour with some interesting info about the city. The app works really well and tracks your position so that the audio syncs up perfectly with your movements as you hop on and off the trolley car. I recommend this tour to anyone travelling solo who has a couple of hours to kill in New Orleans and wants to explore beyond the touristy French Quarter but doesn't quite know where to begin.

GPS did not keep up with our location stopped working. We got on trolley and it quickly told us we were lost. But never caught up with our location
