Guided Tour on a Budget - This tour is well worth every penny of it. It’s like having our own tour guide. We can go at our leisure, in our own car, and spend as much or as little time as we want. Beats sitting on a bus tour.

Excellent audio whilst driving through national parks - Great to hear history about the area whist driving around the national parks. Made looking at all the arches and canyons so much better.

Out West - This was a fabulous trip that was on our bucket list. Michael Ann was so helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. The day in Salt Lake City was snowy but we walked around downtown. We spent a day and a half at Arches and then a day at Canyonlands. Mesa Verde was amazing and the two days at the Grand Canyon were perfect. We stopped at Sedona on our way down to Phoenix.

Great Tour Guide - We loved having the GPS enabled tour guide to help us know where to stop and what we were looking at! Arches and Canyonlands were both beautiful in their own ways!

Great customer service - I did not fully understand how this audio tour worked and was unable to access the tour. The vendor took the initiative to provide a full refund based on my confusion. Hats off to Travel with Action for being so understanding and providing outstanding customer service.

Anniversary trip to the Utah parks - Arches & Canyonlands were stops 2 and three of the adventure. Arches roads will take your breath away. Both are great places to observe by car and the more energetic can have endless hiking opportunities. As a photographer I was in a perpetual blur of view after view. I must say that the absolute best viewing is sunset or sunrise for the most dramatic effects. Theae RE BOTH must-see PARKS.

Wonder and informative App - These national monuments should not be missed. The App only enriches the experience. The narration is excellent and sometimes humorous. Then detailed descriptions very informative and educational. You really can not beat the dollar value for this audio tour. We absolutely loved it and are down loading the rest of our national parks tour.

Enjoyed it! - This was very informative and other than some spotty service it worked really well. We use this in four of the five parks so far.

Didn't work - The audio didn't work for us. Oh well. I'm sure it is informative if you can make it work. We don't know what the issue was., so we gave up.
