HE DESERVED AN AWARD!!!!! - OMG! This was amazing! The narrative did such an awesome job! Directions were very easy to follow, his pronunciation is great & the way he articulated the story made me feel like me and my girlfriend were actually there in the era! The narrative voice is so impactful that each stop felt like we time traveled and was witnessing the events in REAL TIME! 10/10 and would recommend to anyone I know that likes history especially in there own city, if not more around the world!
