Howard_B, Apr 2025
Loved the ability to tour at my own pace and in my own car. The stories shared are interesting and the technology used to see where I am on the path so the audio can start/stop automatically was awesome! The only difficult part was that some of the stories seemed to be a little long as they cut off because we had arrived at the next audio point on the route. I felt like I missed some of the interesting parts and struggled to go backwards to play them again.
Response from Host, Apr 2025
Howard, I’m happy you enjoyed touring Lake Mead & Valley of Fire at your own pace and found the stories engaging and the auto-play feature helpful. Thanks for the kind words about the flexibility and experience. About the audio getting cut off—this can happen if the speed limit shown in the app isn't followed exactly, as it helps keep everything in sync. The good news is that the tour is valid for a year after booking, so you can revisit and catch up on anything you missed. Just be sure to start from the set point, follow the route, and stick to the speed limit—and you’ll have a smooth ride next time.

The audio tour was semi-informative although the route was a good one and contained several good site
Response from Host, Mar 2025
Kimberly, I’m glad you enjoyed the route and found great stops along my Lake Mead & Valley of Fire Self-Guided Audio Tour. My app doesn’t support Android Auto, but you can easily connect to your stereo for a smooth experience. Just a tip—starting from the recommended point, following the suggested route, and keeping to the speed limit will ensure the audio syncs ideally as you drive. And if you’re curious, the “Learn More” section in the app offers deeper insights at each stop. Thanks for sharing your thoughts—it helps me improve for future updates!
