The beginning of the tour was great. The map was at times difficult to follow, especially when we were instructed to turn in Church Street ( which doesn’t exist). When the tour passed Plymouth Rock, the narrator spent most of the time talking about the structure over the rock, and if the narrator even mentioned the rock, we both missed it. Since there is no signage, it would be easy to miss the most important part if the tour.
