A great app!
We did the walking tour of Miles. Canyon in the Yukon and it was fabulous! We learned a lot and loved that it was so flexible. You can take a side trail and take your time to see all that you want.
Excellent!
This tour was great!!!! I did the ghost tour in Drummheller Alberta. It was spooky and so much fun. The narrator told us where to turn and how far it would be. On longer walks the narrator told spooky stories of the area. Well worth the money!!
Only suggestion, make more tours like this!!!

Needs Improvement
Downloaded the app to use two walking tours.
Thankfully, they were free.
The routes were not circular, and following a random map in a strange city is not helpful. Pushing a stroller, juggling a phone, and navigating a map….
Put the phone away, and just wandered the streets. Will not take the second tour.
Recommendation to developer:
The tour should give you the information, then tell you “turn left/right/keep going, go ___ blocks/distance to next stop.”

Very poor app.
Tried different ones in the past, and they are by far a better option
We Loved It!!
We absolutely loved this app. We used it for a trip up to central California. We found the information very interesting and enjoyed the trivia as well!
Wish there was an alternative! App HORRIBLE!
There were so many things wrong with this app, it’s hard to say what was the worst! I’ll just give the FACTS based on our experience.
1. App crashes constantly - yup, just stops working as you approach a stop, not every time, but on a roughly 25 stop tour the app crashed at least 10 times. Which leads to my second big issue….
2. Where are my tours - you often purchase the tours in advance, at home where you have great internet. Time passes, you go to the city where the tour starts, open app, hmmmm… might make sense that you would see a list of the tours you’ve purchased, NOPE! You have to hunt through their menu until you find the one you purchased and start the tour. Oh, by the way, every time the app crashes you have to do the same thing!!!!
3. Where was I ? Also very annoying, you can jump to the spot where you were by hitting the map but it doesn’t actually take you where you left off, ours always took us to the intro….
4. Bring a portable charger- As others have mentioned, this thing will drain your phone faster than anything I’ve ever seen.

Lots of dead time, misses a lot
We did the LA to San Diego tour in June and we’re disappointed in this audio tour. We had previously done a similar tour in Oahu through another developer and it was amazing. This particular tour had LOTS of dead air time and could have covered so much more. This route is not as scenic as I had always heard, so the first half in particular was rough. There were many points of interest that were missed and some of the narration was very brief and could have been much more informative. The drive took a lot longer than anticipated because this route has tons and tons of stoplights, so prepare for more time than is estimated. It is inexpensive, but we thought we wasted so much of a day.

Basically unusable
Tried to do a tour in Winnipeg and the app is unresponsive, super slow, repeatedly crashes. On iPhone 10R
Response from developer
Since the time of this review, we've fixed a number of bugs causing the unresponsiveness and crashing. We haven't had any issues in the past 6 months or so.
Very buggy to use
The app kept freezing and I needed to close and relaunch it at every stop on the tour. Very frustrating and nearly unusable. For this reason I will not buy further tools through here.
Content (Haunted Winnipeg) was solid but repetitive. Could have focused more on some specific stories rather more general accounts of rattling, sightings, and “feeling a presence.”

Since this review, we have fixed all out app bugs and also updated the Haunted Winnipeg tour content.
Vancouver tour
Bien qu’on visite Gastown un quartier en vogue, la moitié du trajet se passe sur une rue en déchéance plein d’itinérants, de drogué et de vendeurs de drogues nous avons eu peur de cet endroit.. heureusement que la fin était mieux.. le parcours a besoin d’une mise à jour, des restos suggérés ont fermé, une statue a disparu.. je ne recommande pas ce trajet

Response from developer
Unfortunately Gastown has fallen into disrepair over the past few years. We made the decision to pull the tour off our tour listing. Hopefully it's safe enough to re-add in the future.
