The Civil Rights Movement in Atlanta: A Self-Guided Audio Tour
Beskrivelse
Skabt af en professionel skuespiller og lokal guide, afslører denne immersive lydtur den dybe arv af et kvarter, der engang blev fejret som centrum for sort rigdom og virksomhed. Mens store busture er begrænset til hovedveje, fører denne rejse dig gennem de intime, smalle sidegader af Sweet Auburn, der har den sande ånd af borgerrettighedsbevægelsen. Historierne tager dig gennem Ebenezer Baptist Church, Dr. Martin Luther Kings barndomshjem og det historiske APEX Museum. Ved hjælp af smart GPS-teknologi udløses den immersive lyd automatisk, mens du går, hvilket skaber en bevægende podcast, der fungerer helt offline for at bevare dine data. Mens du passerer den livlige Curb Market og står foran King Center, omdanner den filmiske fortælling disse landemærker til en levende historie. Ved afslutningen af denne tur vil du føle en dyb, insider forbindelse til de helte, der ændrede kursen i amerikansk historie.

It was really bad. I couldn't get the app to work. The instructions were bad. The beginning place according to the address was no good. I'm glad I used my common sense because I wouldn't have gotten to see anything.
Hi there, I'm sorry that you were unhappy with your experience. When you were having technical difficulties, did you contact VoiceMap support via email or telephone? We are contactable by both telephone and email, so if you have technical difficulties, please reach out to us so we can identify what is going wrong. Again, I'm sorry about the poor experience you had. Best, Alicia
The audio directions were very clear. I enjoyed the history Phil shared, and leave Atlanta with a deeper appreciation of the civil rights movement.
This self-guided tour was awesome!! It was a perfect way to see the sites and neighborhoods that were pivotal in MLK's life as well as other Civil Rights icons. The pace was great and the app was super helpful. It even told me a few times when I turned the wrong way so those that have never been to ATL - never fear!! They won't let you get lost. I loved the whole thing! Sad that a few places mentioned (the Church bar) was not open when I walked through but other than that it was so interesting and fun. Thanks for an affordable and self-paced tour.
I would like a refund. The audio was not clear and the directions we’re not given to my satisfaction.
Hi This tour has an average of 4.5/5 and includes clear audio and on-screen directions. Please can you get in touch with us to help us understand what wasn't clear about the directions provided? Thank you, Alicia
In the beginning it went well. But after 40mins into it we ended up getting lost and the gps didn’t guide us back on the right track. We had to use our Waze to help us out. But overall it was dope. I just think they should have a actually tour guide person.
Just being in the place where Dr King lived and where he was laid to rest. This was a great experience one that I’ll cherish for a lifetime.
Learning about the civil rights history and the Sweet Auburn area made me feel more connected to Atlanta, where I've lived for 3 months now. The history didn't go overly in depth, I'll want to learn more, but I'm glad to know what made the city - and to have discovered a new nightlife area as well! The walking was easy and a refreshing change from the crowded museums.
