Nice addition to PCH tour

We had planned our drive through big air in advance but we’re still a little overwhelmed by all of the potential stops and hikes. I bought this tour to help us out down the trip and it was definitely $7 worth of helpful information. Big Sur has so much to do so this app helps let you know what your options are as you drive down. The other benefit is that it works and knows your location even when you don’t have service since there is poor service in Big Sur. We drove along (north to south) it pointed us towards the best tourist/hiking/view spots and also included entertaining history and stories of the area. Would have loved if they had tour guide all the way to LA.

Don’t travel without this

Overall, the app worked great. It played most of the stories before the sight seeing point came. That was good as we knew the information just before we got there and then had time to take pictures. Voice is quite good and enthusiastic. My suggestion is to add more stories. It is a long route. The stories bring in a whole new dimension to the route. It is like going from mono to stereo music. Don’t travel without this.

Superb Guide during Drive!

Worked extremely well. We had taken the 17 Mile Drive tour app when we were in May and then found this one which starts from Monterey. It covers a huge distance...all the way to SLO. Great content about the scenery, the bridges etc. We didn’t stop or detour anywhere unfortunately. The drive is beautiful even if you rush like we did!
