5.00Perfect way to drive around the park. Good narratives and helpful tips for stopping and hiking
Exceeded our expectations!

5.00Lots of great information. Easy to follow. Especially liked that the audio began as soon as we were approaching the next location and that there was a roadmap showing exactly where our car was on the trip and where the next destination was. Each destination was listed in sequential order so it was easy to know which one was next. If we hadn’t absorbed the information and wanted to hear it again, very easy to go back to that numbered site and listen again. Exceeded our expectations! We are traveling to more places before returning home and will go to the site to see if there are more tours that we can purchase from Viator.

4.00Be patient. Sometimes info lags behind from a location. It does catch up and sync up. The price is well worth the info you get that you would not necessarily know
