Historic Cannery Row : une visite audioguidée de Monterey de John Steinbeck

Aperçu
This self-guided, self-paced audio walking tour will explore Cannery Row in Monterey California and the surrounding area as well as a number of hotels and historic sites. There's a separate admission charge for entrance to Monterey Bay Aquarium.

On this tour, you'll hear how the area served as the industrial heart of Monterey in the first half of the 1900s. Its seemingly inexhaustible number of Pacific sardine attracted fishermen, investors and inventors from around the world seeking their fortune. But, (spoiler alert!) overfishing would decimate the industry by the 1950s.

You will also discover the connection between John Steinbeck and this area as you meet some of the colorful characters that were immortalized in his novel Cannery Row and its sequel Sweet Thursday. Finally, you'll discover the incredible story of how Cannery Row quite literally rose from the ashes to what is now a welcoming waterfront of world-class hotels, wine rooms, restaurants and shopping opportunities.

The only memorable parts were those provided by the local historical society. Your audio was poor, and only one of the 4 of us could use the app because of that. We did much better simply walking around. I basically wasted 3 purchases. Not a lot of $$ but still. . . . To be fair, we arrived late afternoon and didn't bother walking over to The Sardine Factory where, presumably, subscribers met.

Hi We're sorry to hear you didn't enjoy the tour. It has an average of 4.7/5 stars on VoiceMap. Did you give the app permission to follow your location? This is only necessary while you do the tour but it enables the GPS to trigger automatically at the right time and place, and play the correct audio for your location. Keep well, Alicia
