8 Positive User Reviews for DC Monuments
Extremely helpful
Great app for walking or biking. Very useful, well implemented, totally worth three bucks. A few minor things missing (e.g. Ford's Theater) but it has all the main sights. I also used the free iTrans DC app (for the Metro lines).
Great tour, great value!
This was one of the highlights of our DC trip. The app was well done, and for just $2 two of us (we had a splitter) could walk the sights at our own pace. No in-app purchases, no advertising, no tips for the guide needed at the end of the tour... great!
Excellent way to see DC
This app shows you the sights of Washington and allows you to go at your own speed. I like guided tours, too, but sometimes it's nice to escape the big tour groups and go off on your own. The app is perfect for that.
Very satisfied!
The monuments in DC are so beautiful, so moving, that you really want to spend a while at each one taking it all in. This tour lets you do that. We spent 2 days on the monuments and another 2 days at the museums, and would’ve spent more time if we’d had it. We started the tour, took a break for lunch, then toured some more. Definitely cue up the audio, as there are some fun facts in there, and don’t forget to turn your GPS on.
Well done app
The audio really helped us appreciate each monument, we all learned something new at each stop. It was easy to follow the map, too. 5 stars!
Well worth the $2 price
We were lucky enough to visit Washington while the cherries were in bloom. We wanted to do as much as we could outside, to enjoy the trees. This app fit the bill. We were able to see all the monuments along the National Mall, starting and stopping the tour when we wanted. It is a lot of walking! Bring strollers for the little ones. Also, if you have a splitter for your earbuds, two people can listen at once.
Informative
Good content, but your phone screen has to be on or the audio stops playing which makes it a bit temperamental to use.

Not nearly as informative as I had hoped
Granted, it didn't cost much but, I had hoped I would get so much more information about the monuments than I did.
In one case, Jefferson Monument entry seemed to be devoted to be besmirching his memory by talking about him being a slave owner, and fathering several children with one of his slaves. I went to the Martin Luther King Jr. monument and nothing was said about his mistresses. Weird.
It seemed it was a hack job on Thomas Jefferson, one of the original signers of the Declaration of Ind
