100% recommended - We drove the Icefields Parkway last week and were so pleased we had downloaded the audio guide. We were talked through the history and geology of the mountains. We had viewpoints and places of interest flagged up in good time to give us plenty of notice to turn off the road to them. Overall, the commentary vastly enhanced our whole experience. We only had time to drive half the road and were even more impressed to find the commentary was different on the return journey. If you are intending to drive the Icefields Parkway, I would totally recommend this as great value for money.

Well worth the cost - The Icefield Partkway audio tour was wonderful. First the narrator's voice was pleasant and engaging. The content included geological, historical and cultural information. All chatter in the car stopped to listen in when we approach a site included in the tour. Everyone agreed it added a lot to our drive.

Great option to learn more about where you're driving through - We listened to this on the way back from the Columbia Icefield location because we forgot to download for the way up. Lots of fun facts and stories but also pauses to take in scenery or suggestions of where to pull over to experience more or take photos.

A great personal location based Guide! - We have loved having GuideAlong as our guide on many road trips. A great balance of humor, local information and history. The side trips and hidden spots recommended have all been amazing amd the must visit lists provided have never led us astray! Highly recommended any of the tours to have a friendly , informative voice as you drive along for the ride. Enjoy Maui, Western Canada, Icefield parkway, and Niagara falls!

Really informative - Great to listen to instead of digging out a guidebook and tracing to stay focused on driving. GPS location worked very well and works in both directions.
