Delightful surprise - We are not super tech- savvy. As long as you follow the easy instructions, it works perfectly! DON’T forget to download everything before you leave WiFi. The speaker’s voice was clear and easy to understand even with my mild hearing loss. His descriptions timed perfectly with where we were on the tour. We did many of the stops he suggested and enjoyed every one immensely. It was a rainy day and this was still a great activity for the rain except for hiking. By the time the trip was almost over, the rain stopped long enough to do the hike at the Palmer lookout. Just couldn’t see much because of the mist. Very worthwhile activity and would love it more on a sunny day!! Worth every penny and did so many things we wouldn’t have known about! We will try this guide again in another setting!

Scenic Byway (rt 28/30) in NY between Andes and Kingston (Catskills) - This was the first time we have used an audio trip guide. Not knowing what to expect ... our expectations were not overly high. SURPRISE! The audio guide was highly accurate to locations to the area as the vehicle was moving - almost like having the guide in our car! The guide provided visual cues to upcoming attractions and/or turns in a timely manner. The guide had an appealing humor. It truly did not matter where you joined the tour. Even passing through the same places, the guide was still interesting. We would purchase another of the audio tours - 100% would purchase another tour.
