    This is a great tour!...

    Ginger_G, Apr 2026
    This is a great tour! What I love most is that you can travel at your own pace choosing your own stops. There is no schedule - you listen to the guide as you drive through Sonoma and Napa Valley. The guide keeps you entertained with lots of interesting facts about wines, grapes as well as the families in the wine industry. I would highly recommend this trip.

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    I’m glad to hear that my Napa Valley & Sonoma GPS Audio Driving Tour let you enjoy the experience with flexibility and made the journey more engaging with stories about wine, grapes, and the families behind them. It’s great that you were able to choose your own stops and enjoy the drive without a fixed schedule—that’s exactly what I designed my tour for. If you enjoyed my Napa Valley tour, you might love taking it a step further with my Northern California Self-Guided Driving & Walking Bundle Tour. It brings together some of the region’s best experiences, including Lake Tahoe, Lassen Volcanic National Park, Muir Woods, Redwood National Park, and more. Happy exploring!

    Worth the price, very good audio tour

    Traci_S, Nov 2025
    Great audio tour! Lots of history and fun stories! Loved the fact you could go at your leisure and spend as much time at each spot as wanted. Bonus you can do it again over a year! Worth the price.

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    Traci, I’m so glad you loved my Napa Valley & Sonoma Self-Guided Tour. It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the history, stories, and flexibility to explore at your own pace. I’m happy you found it worth the price — and yes, having access for a year is a nice bonus for revisiting your favorite spots.

    You say you cater to...

    Lisa_B, Oct 2025
    You say you cater to people over 60. This one had trouble with the app. We were not going to drive 40 mins to start the app when we knew the app covered the area we were in. I finally got it to talk a little when it identified where we were but it wanted to go in the other direction. I did not get my $25 worth and would not buy another from this company. Plus, I bet I have 15 emails from you and they were confusing and not helpful!

    Response from Host, Oct 2025

    Lisa, thank you for your feedback. Our app works offline once you download the app and tour content, and it’s designed to launch from the starting point or anywhere along the route. I provided clear instructions regarding the starting location, which was 40 miles away, as stated before the purchase. If the app didn’t function as expected, it may have been due to not launching it from the correct starting point. Our tours are valid for a year, so you have plenty of time to use them at your convenience. If you require any assistance, including a refund or replacement, please don't hesitate to contact us directly.

    Perfect self guided tour

    Jennifer_K, Aug 2025
    Wonderful for our purposes! Inexpensive, informative and fun! The app guided us through both Sonoma and Napa, we stopped where we wanted and learned a lot about the history of the area and about wine. We also discovered some unexpected stops like the geyser and petrified forest!
