    Absolutely loved having this beautiful voice telling us stories as we travelled. Just enough information to teach us and keep us listening. Big hit with the children too. We’ve bought 2 more for our trip!

    Maybe it was me but no matter what I did I could not get this to work. I have used it before when visiting parks in Utah. But this time, despite having downloaded it and following all the directions, nothing. Tried while going into the parks for two days and finally gave up.

    Such beauty being in the forest of kings. The Sequoia National Forest was an amazingly beautiful experience. A person can’t really appreciate nature until they have seen a forest of trees older than our nation.

    The audio guide for Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks was excellent. It guided us to what we wanted to see and gave us history lessons about the Parks. Very helpful and worth the cost.

    This self-guided audio tour app was a lifesaver! It worked offline, which was perfect since the park had no cell service. The narration was informative and well-timed, saving us the hassle of researching or planning too much in advance. It felt like having a personal guide in the car—highly recommend for a stress-free adventure.
