Fun way to pass the time driving from San Francisco to Monterey. The app uses your current location to know what section to talk about, so wherever you are, it'll give the right tour guide details. We saw quite a few landmarks we'd never noticed before, and even stopped along the way a couple of times based on the info mentioned in the guide. When it's between speeches, the CarPlay reverted to the stereo, so we had something to listen to while waiting for the next landmark. Totally worth the $10.

I loved the narration, really enjoyed what this was, but I wish the pinpoints/stops where actual sight seeing places. So you can learn about where you're going from stop to stop and be able to get out and explore and take photos. This was more about driving continuously and just listening. Having destinations would make it a more active experience.
