A great way to see San Diego. You can tailor the trip to whatever duration you like. We stopped, took photos, shipped, ate, and even caught a little sun. I will look for these tours for other cities when I travel on business and pleasure.

Voice map is an excellent way to see a city without having to be subjected to toy buses, lots of people, and seeing things that you really aren’t interested in. The app navigate you through the city, avoiding highways, gives you the option to stop when you feel that This site is something you would like to spend more time at, and ensures that you don’t get lost all the while listening to interesting information about the history etc. of the areas that you’re seeing. It’s an excellent app! I highly recommend it to anyone who likes to travel and doesn’t particularly like big tour groups.

Have a never been to San Diego before and this self guided audio Tours was so helpful. We enjoyed seeing the different parts of San Diego and we learned a great deal about the city. It is nice that you can stop it, get out and stretch or go see something and basically take your time. We did this tour over two days and I highly recommend it. There is only one small section somewhere around India Street that the directions a bit unclear but we found our way.
