TOUR GUIDE AS YOU DRIVE VERMONT'S MOST FAMOUS ROUTE
If you like driving yourself when you go sightseeing, GyPSy Guide™ tour apps allow you to enjoy a guided tour experience while remaining totally independent. By driving yourself, you'll be able to get from place to place faster, see more things and not be tied to anyone else's schedule.
DON'T MISS OUT ON THE BEST SIGHTS AND STORIES
The tour apps use your device’s location abilities to play the commentary AUTOMATICALLY. All you have to do is drive, listen and decide which places you want to stop at. Our tour guides have created an insightful and entertaining tour of the RT 100 Scenic Byway of Vermont. We’ll recommend the best places to experience and some great locations that most visitors will drive by.
PLAYS AUTOMATICALLY
GyPSy Guide knows where you are and which direction you are heading, and plays commentary automatically about the things you are seeing, plus stories and tips and advice.
EXPLORE LIKE A LOCAL
It’s just like having a local friend to show you around. And that friend just happens to be a professional tour guide.
GREAT VALUE
The same information you would get on a bus tour or from a guide book, for just a fraction of the price. And you control the itinerary and schedule.
WORKS OFFLINE

NOTES
Download the app on Wi-Fi from your network at home or use any free Wi-Fi network. Because the app is filled with audio commentary and maps, its larger than "normal" apps. Many phone/data networks may block the download because of size - so its important to download over a Wi-Fi network.
++ Continued use of GPS running in the background increases battery usage - we strongly recommend taking a cigarette style (DC outlet) car charger. This is much better than simply plugging into the USB port in a vehicle.
** iPad users - please note that WiFi-only iPads will not activate the commentary automatically. Any iPhone or network-capable iPad (WiFi + Cellular - whether you have a network connection or not) will work just fine.
ABOUT US

Enjoyed by travelers who prefer to set their own pace and itinerary on vacation, but enjoy a fun, informative and educational guided experience. Our goal is to provide a great introduction to the region and perhaps inspire you to learn more and return. None of our apps include paid advertising or placements for benefit.
The app just doesn’t work as described. I have tried all the suggestions as specified ( like going to specified start location, location settings etc) but it doesn't help. It always shows the blue dot(your car) off the route 100 ( as if you are on streets off route 100) and the audio doesn't play. I even tried calling customer service and there's no answer. They didn't bother to call back. Totally ruined my fall road trip.

Response from developer
Sorry to hear you didn't get to experience the tour. Please dm us on info@gypsyguide.com and we'll be happy to send instructions for you to request a refund from the app store. If we aren't able to pick up a support call immediately we always return the call. We did have a message from a Vermont traveller a week or 2 ago who did not leave a call back number with their message. This may or may not have been you.
Location information (blue dot) comes from the device itself. There may have been an incorrect setting on the phone for GPS use or some other factor that we would have checked with you.
