    I’m comparing this to the guide I purchased in Maui for our Road to Hana and while I love the ease of the downloadable GPS guided tour, there’s just need to add more to the tour. Sure there’s an optional hike or overview, but tell me why I should get off at this particular one, or the best hike for the view in your opinion. Give me a recommendation or two and WHY! Tell me what I’m seeing on and overlook and why it matters. It gives good basic information, but lacks a punch in being super helpful.
  • Great guided tour

    We had no idea about native Americans story on this highway. The narrator is excellent. He made the whole trip very interesting. It is a straight road but you can take your time to stop, get out, take pictures. We spent three hours total. Remember, there are no restaurants. Carry some food and drinks. It was easy to use. Audio played on its own when we came to its spot. Do not drive too fast. Overall, very nice. We learnt a lot.

    Great little drive through the White Mountains. Lots of scenic overlooks and small hikes along the way. Great stories about the stops, the histories, and the animals of the region.
  • Well done tour!

    Very lucky to have stumbled up this App. We go every year to see fall colors and just reviewing the App, gets me excited to use this on our annual trip.
