  • A must have for the drive up Mt. Lemmon

    The audio was excellent. All four of us found it to be very informative and very well presented. The history, details on the topography and plant life were interesting. It was perfectly in tune to all the upcoming sites and pull-off areas. I highly recommend this tour if you're driving up Mt. Lemmon. It took us about 3 hours at our leisurely pace.

    Set up and practice using before you go and it was really accurate with timing. You don’t have to start and stop it as you are riding and stopping for photo ops.!

    The audio quality and ease of use are very good. The content is interesting too. The only upgrade to the experience I would suggest is to have the audio on the return trip, highlighting other areas of interest not mentioned on the trip up the mountain.
