Great addition to our Monterey/Big Sur drive! - This app was perfect! Easy to install and set up the tour. The app automatically adjusted based on where we were at. The family enjoyed the fun facts & made our drive from Monterey to Big Sur that much more interesting…

Love self guided tours - Enjoyed listening to background as we approached each stop. Breath taking views! Was a bit confused setting things up but worked it out. Definitely recommend!

Good Driving tour - The tour and the technology worked flawlessly. I did download it using WiFi as it didn’t like using 5G. I don’t know if that was my phone, data provider or this app that wouldn’t allow that. No matter as once it was downloaded it was all great. We used both the north and south recordings as the Big Sur is closed so we drove down from Monterey to Nepanthe and then north to Elephant seal vista. I just used “Resume from Current location” and the app just figured itself out. I would recommend this app if you are driving down the Big Sur. It will be better when the road reopens, but that is not the Apps fault.

Fantastic tour option - Fantastic tour!! We loved it. The stories, the info, the ease and the ability to drive on our own. So clear, and easy to follow. We enjoyed 2 tours.

Budget friendly and cost effective. A well thought out app that I will continue to use! - I’m so glad I came across this self-guided tour on TripAdvisor. I was heavily browsing for a budget friendly, cost-effective option to help continue a 3 day birthday celebration for my girlfriend in Carmel, and Action Tour Guide was exactly what I was looking for. This affordable, one-time purchase app was amazing. I’ve never done a self-guided tour before and I can safely say this made for a pleasant first time experience. The sights alone are obviously gorgeous, but the back to back fun facts and historical backgrounds of each stop only made it even more memorable and exciting. The app is easy to use and helps elevate drives like PCH, especially for those who are doing it for the first time. Looking forward to using this very thoughtful app again and would definitely recommend it. My girlfriend and I had such an amazing time!

Good Tour buggy app! - Easy to follow. But the app is very unreliable with providing audio in the car via Android auto. Needed to be restarted multiple times.

Gorgeous Drive - The tour narration was great! Our only issue was finding the tour start point. Very confusing. We later realized we didn’t need to start at the beginning. Was still confusing! Once we were on it was excellent! We ate at Nepenthe, expensive, but we’ll worth it!

Didn’t work as advertised - I downloaded it the night before but it did not work the day I needed it. I wish I could get a full refund. Otherwise, a waste of money.
