Great Value - This was fantastic. I was concerned based on the comments that there would be reception issues. Literally did not have a single issue with reception the entire time. This was great value.

Fun & Worth the Price - The driving tour is fun and enjoyable, not to mention affordable. On AT&T 5G we didn't lose connectivity for the GPS to pick up our location until just before Breckenridge coming from Denver. We definitely got enough of the tour to enjoy it. Advice for future users: Download the app & prepare to use the tour well before you get in the vehicle. We missed about 20 minutes of the tour fumbling with the download and trying to figure out how to use it.

It's an ok app - Idk. First the good. The content was fine. Good facts. It could have had a more deep dive. The app picked up location via GPS. The bad. The integration with good maps was poor. It calculate the destination poorly. Also, when in towns it was too generic. It also didn't integrate with music.. So it was long pause between stops.

Good but a l little slow - It was a good travel narrator. The trivia was cute but a little silly at times. My only complaint is that in our drive from Denver to Vail the notifications for attractions for attractions came after we had passed exits. I’d use it again, but would probably pre listen to the information so I had more chance to anticipate where I might wish to turn off. I really enjoyed the history of the region and would have appreciated more of that. May be an option for attractions only narration and longer more in-depth narration would be good.

A little disappointing - It was an OK driving tour. But what you need to know about the Denver to Vail driving tour is that you often times get in the mountains without good Internet reception and so we would lose the voice throughout the tour. Not a fault of the company, but still a hassle. We were able to read the verbiage where the voice dropped off. The other thing is, they seem to miss some big places like red rock amphitheater! That is certainly a well recognized venue that should be on the tour.

It needs a lot of work - Hard to enjoy while you’re driving on the freeway. I was hoping for a path along a highway while listening to the tour guide. The guide took too long to give information, I kept thinking I was off line. We did a lot of driving with very little information. I felt like I wasted my day. Sorry but this is the first time I scored a POOR review.

Not needed - Didn't like it much. I felt like it's just a commentary about the places on way from Denver to Vail, with less details on what can one expect. Even details about places along the way didn't made me to feel to visit those places
