The price was good. The history was interesting. However, the story was convulated and hard to follow. Some important landmarks were missed so that others that fit the narrative could be squeezed in. I believe the narrative was supposed to be about the bad experiences of the immigrants as the tried to settle, but the story was so obscure with orange and blue butterfly memory references that I have no clue what it was actually about. It took us 2 hours to complete with no extra stops.
