Excellent value - We actually really enjoyed the audio tour. It is an easy walk with several places to stop and shop or have a meal or a drink. It was well priced, and I would highly recommend it.

Bar Harbor On Your Own Time - What a great way to see Bar Harbor without costing an arm and a leg! The tour was very easy to navigate and by downloading the program ahead of time, you didn't need to worry about WiFi. We were able to go at our own pace, taking breaks to sit a bit, run into a store and even stop to get a snack/drink. The information at each of the tour stops was concise and no more than 3 minutes each.

Fun walking tour - We really liked that the audio was perfectly synced with our location. This d is great because it’s hard for us to hear in a large tour group. It was just the right amount of information. It didn’t get boring and we learned a lot about the area.

Easy and enjoyable - This walking tour was super. We just downloaded one for Boston and found it very easy to learn about the town at our own pace without being in a massive tour group.

Great way to see bar harbor - This made the walk around so interesting. The narrations automatically played when we approached something interesting. We went in the opposite order, end to beginning. And it worked fine for us. I wish there were more of these at other locations.

Nice way to spend an afternoon - Easy, informative, can set your pace. Wish there was a little more information on each topic/place of interest. Overall a nice way to spend the afternoon, get some Steps in and learn a little about the town.

Better communication on how to start is needed - It wasn't clear to me that there wouldn't be a person or a desk to check in with. The harbor master said lots of people show up at his office based on the apps map of starting location abd he has no knowledge whatsoever of the company ... inside the pier shops are other tour desks who have never heard of this company. We spent half an hour stumbling around, going to the Visor Information desk downtown who knew nothing either ... then got within like sto #3 and the audio started playing off the app on my phone.
