    We love GuideAlong! It’s so impressive how the app knows exactly where you are on the route and provides directions/instructions/commentary. We really appreciate the advice as we are going along about the “must see” spots versus some that need not be a priority. We also like how it discusses whether a hike is easy or strenuous and about how much time it takes. Love suggestions for photo ops. We just did Arches and Canyonlands and learned so much about the history and geology. The commentary is informative and provided in just the right amount of time per topic. Highly recommend!

    We have done the Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and then did the Vancouver tour. We just did the Sedona and Grand Canyon South Rim tour. I LOVE these tours, I legitimately plan my vacations around whether or not there is a guide along tour available. It’s affordable and so nicely paced. Such a good mix of history, practical information, geology, and fun facts. We have seen more, done more, and paid less because of these tours!
  • A Travel Essential!

    We have been using these guides for years and we highly recommend them to anyone who will listen. The level of detail and extent covered in this guide is unmatched. We particularly appreciate the additional information provided on where to park, stop for treats, must-visit sites and hikes, and cautionary advice for dangerous areas. We love the flexibility of being able to travel at our own pace and in the privacy of our vehicle. The map overview, tips, highlights, and the ability to start and stop the tour as we please are also great features. It's like having an entertaining and knowledgeable historian, geologist, ecologist, and expert tour guide all rolled into one. Our entire family, including the teens, thoroughly enjoys listening and learning from these tours. It's an extraordinary value for what is received, and we never travel without our guide. It's an absolute must-have for any traveler!
  • A wonderful companion!

    My family and I were road tripping through Arizona and decided to make a day of the Grand Canyon. I stumbled across this guided tour on Google and decided to spend the $12, because why not! I had done no preparation, and I was fairly sure we weren’t going to hike down this trip. We just needed some guidance to do a quick trip to the best scenic places. Well, thanks to GuideAlong’s EXCELLENT directions and suggestions, we happily spent nearly 6 hours at the Grand Canyon. What we enjoyed most were the back stories of each place - the timeline, the history, the geography, the people, the drama! Real life is so much better than fiction. All of it delivered by a narrator with a rich warm voice and just enough of a sense of humor. And I loved that there were vignettes from the time we left Williams and even after we left the Grand Canyon and headed back towards Flagstaff. It felt like the narrator was a super knowledgeable passenger riding along with us. I only wish that we knew his name! GuideAlong made our trip really fabulous. Even our cranky teenager was into it.

    I have used guide along at multiple parks in the West, Hawaii, and Smokey Mountains , I’m addicted. Everywhere I go I check to see if there is a guide to that area. It is informative, funny, interesting, and helpful on every trip. Everyone who travels with me enjoys it also from grand kids aged 10 to 15 to friends. It’s the best travel companion ever. You can go at your own pace, stop when you like, don’t when you don’t. There is nothing negative about this app. It works wherever you are , even when cell service is out. I really can’t say enough about how great it really IS.
  • My family loved the tour! Big hit well worth it.

    We downloaded the Miami to Key West tour and love that it showed us some really interesting and fun places to stop as well as having different commentary on the way back. We’ve always enjoyed having a tour guide, and have paid for some expensive sightseeing tours, but there’s no need to do that when you have guide along with you! So enjoyed the interesting anecdotes to keep you engaged. It truly made it worthwhile.
  • Better than expected!

    We are traveling with 16 year old twins and were concerned with keeping them interested. First sign they liked it was naming the reader Fred. Every time Fred stopped speaking they could hardly wait until he started again. They had a lot more fun than expected. So much fun that we’ve already purchased one for Mesa Verde. An absolute for long road trips to NPS.

    We played the audio tour as we drove thru the park and wrote down the places we wanted to explore further. The next day, we hit those highlights. Can’t wait to use it for other parks.

    We love this app. Last spring we used it to tour the Utah Mighty 5 National Parks. This year we are using it in Great Smoky Mountains NP. The premise of the app is simple and genius. Drive through the park and the narrator provides commentary based on location. The information is interesting and helpful and the stories are very entertaining and educational. Any of our future trips that GuideAlong narrates we will definitely buy.
