Although we enjoyed the actual tour part of the experience, there were some technical challenges and uncertainties in the process. The historical and demographic information regarding Skyline Drive was great, however, we agreed that adding more practical information like "great look-out for sunrises or sunsets" would be helpful. There was quite a bit of time when the blue dot did not align with the map route and we wondered if we missed any of the audio information because of this. Overall we were pleased with the purchase and would recommend to others.

We fully enjoyed learning about the park and all the historical surrounding areas. Using the audio coming back the other direction. The app would just shut down.all all we got a lot of informative info when going to our stops coming from Front Royal.

If you turned it off it would always start at the beginning and you'd have to find your place. Content was good.

A great way to do National Parks with a narrative of the locations and the app pauses when you stop for photos. Learned lots of history and highlights of The Shenandoah National Park. Would highly recommend using the APP. It was so easy and informative.
