I wish we could turn off the dreadful background music

There is no way to turn off the audio background music that we are forced to listen to. I’ve used other audio guides and loved those. This is the only one for the area I am in, it’s not that good..

Love!

I love doing driving tours and I enjoyed this one so much! I grew up in Modesto and it was so sweet to tour my former home in this way. I loved the interviews and exploring places that I remember and that I didn’t know about!

Thank you!

This app was so helpful! My family and I were visiting malibu after helping my brother move into L.A.. We had no idea where to go and how to do it and the suggestions the tour gave us were amazing! The Getty villa was my favorite stop, the art and history displayed there is impressive! My favorite part was the architecture itself.

To eat we went to the Neptunes Net! I loved the clam chowder! And everything for a good price! I would definitely go again.

The app itself was easy to use, my parents have a hard time with new technology or apps but they seemed to be at ease the whole time, especially because we could take all the time we wanted!

Thanks so much for the awesome review, MarNathei! We're so glad you loved the tour!!

Almond Blossom Cruise

Took this cruise through beautiful almond orchards as far as you could see. Also learned a lot about the rest of Modesto. Very welcoming town. Well done!
