We enjoyed the audio guide, thank you! Just needed to download the app and then download the audio and then you are good to go! Make sure you have a wi-fi connection to do that. Otherwise we had fun, listening interesting short stories about each celebrity houses.

    Works, but requires patience

    Kathleen_R, Sep 2026
    If you drive too quickly, the audio does not finish. Also, if you get off course, such as for a bathroom break, return to the last location completed.

    Response from Host, Sep 2026

    Hi Kathleen, my Palm Springs tour plays automatically as you follow the route. Thanks for the note about speed and pacing - I’ll pass that along to my team. If you liked Palm Springs, try my Southern California Self-Guided Tour with experiences like Hollywood Star Homes, LA filming locations, La Jolla Cove, and Death Valley. Happy exploring!

    It was ok. Glad it was only $18

    Julia_H, Sep 2026
    It was hard to follow the story and directions and drive at the same time. I would often drive too fast past a landmark that had a story and the navigation and location story would stop, not directing me how to go back. I got lost a few times and missed several actor's homes and stories.

    Response from Host, Sep 2026

    Hi Julia, thanks for letting me know! Keep in mind that your audio tour is valid forever, so if you’re still in the area, you can drive back through and catch sights you might have missed the first time due to traffic conditions. Thanks for the note on speed and pacing - I’ll pass that on to my team.

    Not quite what I expected

    Bill_C, Aug 2026
    My purchased audio tour didn't show up on my tours list, even after following all the numerous instructions. The code they sent me to use wasn't recognized by their own system. I had to call for support, and of course they were all busy but they did call me back later. The support person was incredibly hard to understand, but after some time he was able to make my tour show up so I could access it. The user interface wasn't quite what I was expecting. It does use GPS to know where you are driving, but I was expecting it to integrate into Google maps. It does not, and if you make a wrong turn, it's pretty difficult to figure out where to go next.

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Bill, I’m sorry the setup process was frustrating, the code didn’t work smoothly at first, and the support call wasn’t as clear as it should have been. The tour uses its own GPS-based map rather than integrating directly with Google Maps, so staying on the route shown in the app helps keep the audio and directions synced. If you miss a turn, you can return to the closest route point and continue from there. I’ll pass your comments to my team as we review ways to make setup, navigation, and route recovery easier.

    Perfect but one change

    Sara_K, Aug 2026
    This driving tour was fantastic. The only change I would make is to do the Coachella stuff separate because when we bypassed that portion on the app, it did not take us directly to the next "event".... Palm Springs airport then Bob Hope and Frank Sinatra's cemetery memorial. We tried to put in an address and it didn't work. We ended our tour and were disappointed. Other than that, the tour was perfect. Too bad a lot of the homes have privacy gates and hedges.

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Sara, thank you for taking my Palm Springs GPS driving audio tour. I’m so glad you found the tour fantastic overall, though I’m sorry that skipping the Coachella section didn’t guide you smoothly to the next stop. The tour works best when followed in sequence along the route shown in the app, but I’ll pass your feedback to my team to make skipped sections and route recovery easier. Some homes do have privacy gates and hedges, but I’m happy the rest of the tour was a great experience.

    Great tour if you want to see where Alan Ladd or Dinah Shore lived

    Kenneth_R, Aug 2026
    The technology itself is pretty cool: drive around and the voice automatically narrates details about a specific site. The content, on the other hand, was not what I was hoping for. If you’d like to know where Alan Ladd lived or maybe see Dinah Shore’s house, this is the tour for you! If you have no idea who these people are and would be more interested in local history or architectural details, you might be a little underwhelmed.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Kenneth, I’m glad you found the GPS-triggered narration technology cool, but I’m sorry the content wasn’t what you were hoping for. The tour includes celebrity homes as part of Palm Springs’ story, but I’d like to know what additional local history or architectural details you expected so I can share your feedback with my team for review. I’m available daily from 9 AM to 6 PM EST, so feel free to reach out directly.

    Perfect option to the cattle call style

    Ernie_W, Aug 2026
    Yes, it’s nice to do it at your own pace and to stop in the middle of it if you want and rejoin the tour when you’re ready.

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Ernie, thank you for taking my Palm Springs GPS driving audio tour. I’m so glad it felt like the perfect alternative to a crowded group tour and gave you the freedom to explore at your own pace. I’m happy you enjoyed being able to pause, stop along the way, and rejoin the tour whenever you were ready.

    Joshua Tree

    Steve_T, Aug 2026
    Ron was a great driver and guide, he knows a lot about the history of the park, geology and the plants. Very informative and engaging. We had a lot of fun and would do it again.

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Steve, thank you for sharing your Joshua Tree experience. I think this may have been posted on my Palm Springs GPS driving audio tour listing by mistake, since my tour is a self-guided audio experience and does not include a live driver or guide. My tour lets you explore at your own pace with GPS-based stories, route guidance, and local history along the way, and I’d love for you to try it on a future trip. Happy exploring!

    Overall a good tour. The...

    Gary_S, Aug 2026
    Overall a good tour. The starting point was tricky. Also, there were a few times when we got to an intersection before the narrator stopped and we didn't know which way to go. Sometimes, the narrator would tell where to stop like up near the green shrubs...well there may be more than 1 set of them. But once we got the hang of it, it was good.

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Gary, my listing notes that audio tour begins next to The Arches House at 595 W Chino Canyon Road, with the gated home and adobe arches on your left, then continues along W Chino Canyon Road; staying close to the route and driving at the suggested pace helps the narration and turns stay in sync. Please reach out and let me know which intersections or stop descriptions felt unclear, and I’ll pass them to my team for review. I am available daily from 9 AM to 6 PM EST.

    Frustrated!

    Debra_H, Jul 2026
    Very difficult to navigate directions to actually down load tour. I had to make three phone calls to the support team who managed to get me logged on.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Debra, I’m sorry the download and login process was so frustrating and required three calls to resolve. I’m glad my support team was ultimately able to get you logged in, but the setup should have been much smoother. I’ll share your feedback with my team so we can improve the instructions and make it easier to access the tour. Once downloaded, the tour works offline throughout the drive.

    Checking out Palm Springs

    This was a great afternoon experience during a super hot time of day. We liked the history and learning about Palm Springs.

    Multiple Downloads are needed

    Julie_W, Jun 2026
    This experience requires 2 apps. You must download load both before you can begin. The directions for accessing the tour app is not clear and was difficult to navigate. The directions are very difficult to understand. Once set up, the Action Tour Guide was amazing!

    Response from Host, Jun 2026

    Julie, thank you for using my Palm Springs GPS audio tour. I’m glad my app was amazing once set up. I’m sorry the access directions felt confusing—I provide the app link and unique password right after purchase, and only the provided app is needed, not the Viator app. I’ll review the directions. If you remember where they felt unclear, please reach out between 9 AM and 6 PM EST. If you liked Palm Springs, you might want to try my Southern California Self-Guided Driving & Walking Bundle Tour.

    Fun Palm Springs Tour

    Nancy_T, Jun 2026
    It took our family about an hour and a half to view the main route. There are alternate routes, should you wish to explore more. The narrated tour is clear, fun to hear, and pretty simple to initiate. Just don’t forget to download the tour before driving to the “meet” location.

    Response from Host, Jun 2026

    Nancy, I’m so glad to hear your family enjoyed my Palm Springs GPS Driving Audio Tour. It’s wonderful to know the narration was clear, fun to hear, and easy to start, and that you were able to complete the main route at a comfortable pace. I also appreciate you sharing the helpful reminder for future travelers to download the tour before heading to the meeting location.

    Seeing how the other half lives…

    Dalila_B, Jun 2026
    This tour was a lot of fun and a great way to beat the Palm Springs heat while being entertained. The celebrity stories were interesting and I loved driving around the neighborhoods the tour led me around because there is so much fantastic architecture. I did experience some tech glitches but things went smoothly once I was in the groove…

    Response from Host, Jun 2026

    Dalila, I’m glad you enjoyed my Palm Springs GPS Driving Audio Tour and that it helped you stay cool while exploring the city, celebrity stories, and architecture.

    Worst GPS guided tour

    Janice_R, Jun 2026
    Terrible and unreliable GPS navigation. This is the WORST driving excursion I have experienced. You should either upgrade your GPS navigation or delete this tour.

    Response from Host, Jun 2026

    Janice, the app asks for location/GPS permissions, and if they are not granted then the tour will not work — as you experienced. Since you didn’t really take the tour as intended, I’m happy to offer a refund. Please let me know.

    Make sure everyone in...

    Stephanie_C, May 2026
    Make sure everyone in your party is prepared well before the trip. Not doing so can mean details like Carplay and the dashboard map don't get proper setup.

    Response from Host, Jun 2026

    Stephanie, thank you for sharing your feedback. I completely agree that setting everything up before the tour starts helps ensure the best experience. Currently, audio playback works through Apple CarPlay, and full navigation integration has been requested from Apple and is awaiting approval. In the meantime, I recommend downloading, setting up, and testing the tour before your trip so everything is ready when you arrive. Please feel free to reach out to me directly — I’m available daily from 9 AM–6 PM EST.

    Easy to follow along! ...

    Diana_G, May 2026
    Easy to follow along! Our host had a very clear, personable speaking voice. Very specific instructions allowed for us to really enjoy! Only downside was audio abruptly stopped mid way thru Bette Davis stop (think #34) and we couldn’t get it fired back up. Maybe tour was supposed to end. It was over for us for sure? All in all, good experience.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Diana, I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed my Palm Springs GPS Driving Audio Tour. I’m sorry to hear the audio stopped unexpectedly. The Bette Davis stop is actually Stop #39, and the tour contains 78 stories in total, so the tour definitely was not supposed to end there. I’d love to learn more about what happened so I can look into it further. Please feel free to reach out to me directly — I’m available daily from 9 AM–6 PM EST.

    Easy for some people not so much for

    Ethel_C, May 2026
    I don’t ever do reviews, but I wanted to review this one. Everyone remarked that this was the best and the easiest. This is my second driving self guided tour. The app was easy enough to work with however, once the tour started, it could never quite get me to the starting point of the tour so I had to get out of it to go to Apple Maps to get back into where the exact directs were to the tour start. I like the stories, but the app kept telling me that I could just travel at my own pace to my own areas and it would automatically pick up the sites around me. True to a point. However, they always lagged which left me confused as to whether they were marking me properly on their map. Yes, they did seem to mark my car properly, but the guide couldn’t catch up to where we were. Twice they tried to send me the wrong way down a one-way street. And when I became creative and moved to another street, it seemed to have trouble understanding why I was there. We listened for a few of the sites, and then abandoned it all together maybe somebody who’s a little more Tech Savey could do this , I could never get to the navigation system onto my computer panel of my car so I constantly had to use the phone and as a driver I found it distracting. I don’t think I’ll do any more self-guided tours. Next time I’ll go with the tour guide.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Ethel, thank you for your detailed feedback on the Palm Springs GPS Driving Audio Tour. I’m glad you enjoyed the stories and found parts of the app easy to use, but I apologize for the frustrating navigation. Since this is a GPS tour, it works best when launched from the official start and following the route. Changes or GPS delays can cause lag or confusion. I’m concerned about the one-way street issue and would like to know the streets involved to investigate further. Currently, only audio plays through Apple CarPlay, and full navigation is pending Apple approval, so many use Bluetooth or AUX. I appreciate your feedback and am sorry it didn't meet expectations. Feel free to contact me directly for further help, another tour, or a refund. I’m available daily from 9 AM–6 PM EST.

    Tiffany_M, Apr 2026
    Really fun tour. It’s very extensive and takes you to all the sights. The app was very easy to use and the narrator’s voice was very soothing. We have been to Palm Springs many times but never knew the history or so many celebrities had homes here. Would absolutely recommend.

    Self guided Palmsprings tour

    EdwardandCharlene_A, Apr 2026
    Had us drive out to a starting point, we didn’t need to go to, so we back tracked into downtown. Houses are obstructed by walls and shrubs. The Palm Canyon was interesting, but didn’t do the hike because of rattlesnakes.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Edward, my Palm Springs tour does have a suggested start but people can choose to begin anywhere. Some of the homes are obstructed, as I make clear in the listing and in the tour. If there’s anything else I can add to make this clear, please let me know.

    Great navigation and included all the Palm Springs Highlights.

    Danielle_M, Apr 2026
    This was a great tour. The mapping was spot on and the stories were great. It also helped that each stop had a corresponding picture so you know what to look for. It was inexpensive and I was able to spend as much time at each stop that I wanted without having to deal with a large guided tour.

    Great Experience

    James_W, Apr 2026
    This app is definitely priced right compared to the guided tours available in Palm Springs. It does take a bit of doing some sometimes to figure out what house the app is talking about. I would recommend doing this tour on a weekday as opposed to a weekend. On weekends, there are often multiple cars and the streets can be narrow, making it difficult to see.

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    James, I’m really glad to hear that my Palm Springs GPS Driving Audio Tour felt like a good value compared to guided options. I appreciate your note about identifying some of the homes—since many are private residences, visibility can vary depending on angles, traffic, and surroundings. Your tip about doing the tour on a weekday is a great one too, as it definitely makes for a more relaxed experience on those narrower streets.

It’s wonderful that you enjoyed exploring in the comfort of your own car, seeing famous homes and hearing stories about the people who lived there. If you liked Palm Springs, you might want to try my Southern California Self-Guided Driving & Walking Bundle Tour. It features some of the region's top experiences, like Hollywood Celebrity & Star Homes, Famous Filming Locations in Los Angeles, La Jolla Cove, and Death Valley National Park. Happy exploring!
