Great animations
Such a good app! A lot of animations. Clearly understood the story. This app is less expensive than the audio guide they offer. And, it showed animations of the battle. A beautiful story ... and beautifully narrated. Don’t go without this. I read and listened To the app stories before going there. It helped me a lot. You may want to do that.

Tour is nicely organized
Really good detailed information in each section. I was planning to use the GPS feature, but the tour is so well organized that I didn’t even need it. The pictures also help you to understand what it is talking about. I could just press next and walk around. There is a demo before you have to pay for the full thing. It is worth it!
