Historic Cannery Row: um tour de áudio autoguiado de Monterey de John Steinbeck
Descrição
Este passeio a pé autoguiado e com ritmo individual irá explorar Cannery Row em Monterey, Califórnia e arredores, além de vários hotéis e locais históricos. Há uma taxa de admissão separada para a entrada no Monterey Bay Aquarium. Nesta excursão, você ouvirá como a área serviu como o coração industrial de Monterey na primeira metade dos anos 1900. Seu número aparentemente inesgotável de sardinha do Pacífico atraiu pescadores, investidores e inventores de todo o mundo em busca de fortuna. Mas, (alerta de spoiler!) A pesca excessiva dizimaria a indústria nos anos 50. Você também descobrirá a conexão entre John Steinbeck e essa área ao conhecer alguns dos personagens coloridos que foram imortalizados em seu romance Cannery Row e sua sequência Sweet Thursday. Por fim, você descobrirá a incrível história de como o Cannery Row literalmente subiu das cinzas para o que hoje é uma orla acolhedora de hotéis, vinícolas, restaurantes e oportunidades de compras de classe mundial.

Excellent, full of historical perspectives and fascinating characters. Tom, my guide, is a great teacher and storyteller, I recommend this tour for a comprehensive look at Monterey then and now.
Never got it to work right. Thought i could stop snd start, but it seems to have a 24 vlock on it. One time use, did not add to ecperience. Left me frustrated and angry my

Highly recommend reading Steinbeck’s Cannery Row before taking this walking tour. It will be more interesting if you do.
Excellent self guided tour of Cannery Row area. The tour was easy to follow. Recommend reading book before the self tour - will add a lot of insight and value into characters, locations.
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.
had difficulty with the audio. wasn't pin pointing my location well. wouldn't work when i was at my location. when it did work it was too long winded.
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
Very user friendly. You just need to walk and it will tell you where you are. Loved it. Lots of great information
I just felt it was long winded and the audio didn't always go off so struggled with getting the right segment with the location. great more frustrating than enjoying.

This was a great tour we were able to complete at our own pace and stop and start as we wanted. Lots of great history and really feel like we were able to see Cannery Row from the eyes of John and Ed.
