Audio tour - I downloaded the app when I had good connection. When I got there, went to the Zion visitor center and ranger helped me connect to the internet, but as soon as I started hiking down a trail, no internet. But when I got to the next stop, the audio tour automatically came on! And it was interesting and helpful.

Highly recommend!! - The driving tour was fantastic especially for anyone who doesn’t love to hike. There were many places to pull off and take pictures. The shuttle bus at Zion was basically for those who wanted to hike the trails and we really wanted to see the beautiful scenery without that. Would highly recommend!!

The Colombo Zion Experience! - The commentary was perfect for a great driving experience in The Zion National Park. We knew where to stop, a brief history of the location and identify our location of pictures taken.

would’ve been great if the park ranger had to close the drive - The parts that I was able to do were great they were very informative. But unfortunately Park Rangers had closed off most of the scenic drive so I didn’t get to listen to a lot of it

Difficult to understand how to get it. - We gave up trying to figure it out. No one at the Lodge or Visitor’s Center knew anything about it and directions were to vague to follow. Robert Hines
