### 5/5 — I can’t believe how awesome this is

*2025-05-03*

Our first time in the Portland area we wanted to take in the Columbia Gorge and weren’t exactly sure where to start. I stumbled on this free self guided tour and I can’t say enough good things. We took our time, spending 7 hours on the National Scenic route and loved every minute of minute of it. We followed just about all of the turn off suggestions and just kept finding ourselves pleasantly surprised. Even the points of interest that weren’t for us were nice to experience. The geo-coding worked perfectly and we learned so much along the way. This far exceeds any self guided tour I’ve paid for, can’t wait to come back and try the other guided tours.

### 5/5 — Fun audio tour

*2024-08-09*

First of all, great tour and  I would have happily paid for this audio tour. The narration and tempo was good and the stories were interesting. Doing audio tours is one of my favorite things to do in a new place and I was surprised this one was free considering how well it was put together and how much time it probably took to finish. Couple suggestions, add some music between the narration sections (Shaka guide has this and I enjoyed listening to what ever  they select for music), add the summer chairlift ride at Mt Hood Meadows, as you leave Portland the Shanghai Tunnels are mentioned and it says well that story is for another time but then there is a long stretch before the next narration, maybe add on a little more to that. And thank you, I learn so much on this tour and had a really good time listening. I hope you stick to these audio guides, you are good at them.

### 5/5 — Like a tour guide in your car

*2023-08-06*

Was really interesting and loved the cool history of the drive. Would LOVE to see more across the pacific nw!

### 5/5 — Colored mania River Tour

*2023-05-25*

Loved it!

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2022-09-12*

Very similar to a tour we got through Yellowstone and it absolutely is a game changer. Highly recommend! Only critique is we could not turn the volume up or down on our vehicle’s radio (via CarPlay) once the app was opened and the guide started. Very strange bug. Other than this, absolutely great!

### 5/5 — Enhanced out travel!

*2022-07-24*

My husband and I had a great time visiting Oregon this last week, and it was all much enjoyed thanks to Gods beautiful handiwork and your enhancing audio tour. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Great tour, info

*2021-08-17*

This is a great audio tour for Mt Hood and the Columbia Gorge. You can pick it up anywhere along the route in either direction. I appreciated all the info on the Native Americans too- so many tours ignore anything that happened prior to European contact. And their support was super fast and helpful. Definitely recommend!

### 5/5 — Labor Day Weekend Adventure Success

*2020-09-07*

My sister and I completed the Hood driving tour today and had an absolute blast! We started at Pioneer Courthouse Square in downtown Portland, followed all the way to Timberline Lodge and back with some suggested scenic stops and celebratory beers at McMenamin’s Edgefield to cap off our day. The narration was excellent; a combination of interesting Oregon history and fun facts with perfectly inserted humor that made for a really enjoyable experience. It was so interactive and the attention to detail was beyond impressive! I’ll be recommending this app to all my friends. You’ve got a good thing going, Together Anywhere!

### 5/5 — Stellar app

*2020-08-17*

So many hidden gems are off the beaten path that my family and I would not have known about if we had not used this app. Together anywhere made a day on the road feel unlike any other road trip we have taken. I’m grateful we found this app, it’s a game changer for road tripping.💫

### 5/5 — Fun and fascinating!

*2020-08-17*

Really enjoyed the local lore, deep dive into history, engaging narration, and fun factoids—it made my road trip fly by, and I learned a lot along the way! Keep up the great work!
