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! ### 5/5 — Thank you! *2024-06-20, version 1.30.0* 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! ### 5/5 — Almond Blossom Cruise *2024-02-28, version 1.17.0* 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! ### 4/5 — Almond Blossom Tour *2024-02-26, version 1.17.0* The tour was great but we had a slight glitch when we were halfway through. The app skipped to the final stop even though the GPS was fine. I followed the suggestion to manually select the next point. It eventually followed us and we were back on track. The narration was great addition to a scenic drive. ### 5/5 — Yolo tour and a fun day! *2024-02-26, version 1.17.0* Today was a Birthday Celebration for my sister and we had a great time on the YOLO, Farms and …tour. The narration along the way was entertaining and educational. While it took us a bit longer than the two hours, we stopped at a couple of place and enjoyed ourselves. The tour was a bargain in entertainment $$ and having the ability to stop when and where we wanted was convenient. Thank you Ric for your assistance when requested and for the fun!!! PS those of us that have went on the tour have spent time in YOLO since kids attended UCD, but we never ventured like we did today. If you’re doing a college visit, take the tour for greater assessments in decision-making. ### 1/5 — Navigation is flawed *2024-02-18, version 1.17.0* We downloaded the Almond Blossom Cruise and set out, only to be sent into a spiral of nonsensical loops near Modesto Junior College east campus. There was no clarity on where we were headed, though it turned out to be a donut shop reached by going the way we’d originally started (no roadwork in the way). I’d hoped for something more like museum self-guided audio tours, where you trigger narration as you reach a waypoint. Instead, you have to have it on continuously—with music that can’t be turned off. We gave up, wrote off the $14.99, and used the downloadable map from Visit Modesto. The almond orchards themselves are impressive. ### 5/5 — Such a fun idea! *2024-02-06, version 1.17.0* I wasn’t sure what to expect of taking a self guided tour, but I was pleasantly surprised! The app was easy to use and the directions were really simple to follow 😌 All of the fun facts and stories kept my friends and I quite entertained!! Even though the tour we took was around 2 hours long, stopping at their recommended waypoints turned one tour into a whole day adventure!🏃🏽‍♂️We will definitely be checking out another tour soon! ### 5/5 — The Hollywood tour was awesome! *2023-09-18* I totally recommend this tour for anyone she likes to adventure the big city. For our family, 2 kids and 2 adults, it was literally less than one tenth of the price of the TMZ tour. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2023-07-28, version 1.15.1* My grandson used this app to go to his friends birthday party in Las Vegas. ### 1/5 — Terrible. *2022-10-07, version 1.1.8* Map does not work. Tried everything to make it work. App loses your location. Stupid. Would like a refund. Help section not active. Useless. ## Frequently asked questions about Wayfarer GPS Audio Guides ### What does Wayfarer GPS Audio Guides do?
