The tour was fantastic - we knew a lot already, but learned a lot from the tour. The sites it took us to were visually significant and interesting, and we really enjoyed it.
It was great to see some iconic sites associated with Prince! It was my first time visiting Minneapolis and I had a wonderful time exploring parts of his city!
I love self-paced walking tours, and this one doesn’t disappoint. It’s a reasonable length, about 1.5 miles long from the starting point to its end, so you’d have to add on how far you have to go to get there if you’re walking-time pain challenged like me. But there are places along the way to stop and rest. I love that it starts at the MTM statue as that was another one of my tourist goals. It was spectacular coming around a corner and seeing a mural! I also love that I can access it anytime in the future. I didn’t take as long in some places as I would have liked because my time was limited. So I took pictures and videos, and I’ll listen to the tour again while perusing the pics. This tour really whet my appetite to come back to MNPLS in the spring or fall when I can properly tourist.
Full of fun trivia, heartfelt remembrances of Prince, and endearing tangents. Great way to see this chunk of downtown Minneapolis.
The narrative was not very informative. I felt like we walked up and down the same street a few times with nothing to show for it.

Some nice spots pointed out on the walk. Couple of bumps along the way, but all in all was decent. Need a few more " you're doing fine keep walking this way" in my humble opinion.

I was never able to download it and I tried multiple times. It was also hard to find the beginning location where it was supposed to start. The phone number for the company does not work. And email is not helpful when you need help right now.

It was ok. The only part we appreciated was seeing the mural of Prince and not sure we would have seen it if we had not done the tour.
