Huge amount of information, obviously a labor of love. We wanted to do self guided tours and having such a wealth of information available is incredible. Fantastic work, thank you so much!

This app does have a LOT of information. However, it took FOREVER to load most pages, with high speed internet, to the point of being unusable. My device has plenty of memory, no other apps open, etc., so that wasn't the problem. Very disappointed.

Thank you so much for your feedback! Due to the number of high quality photos within my app, it unfortunately may take a long time to load depending on your WiFi connection or data service. I apologize for the inconvenience and your overall dissatisfaction. I have emailed you in regards to issuing you a refund.

Excellent narrative and stunning photographs of historic Galena, Illinois. Self guided walking tours are an inexpensive way to learn more about Galena than I ever imagined. So much info and so many photos, it seems to have mo end!
