The information was interesting and well timed. It came on automatically throughout the drive and ends exactly where it said it would.
Thank you for the 5⭐ review! We’re glad the tour between Kamloops & Revelstoke added interesting, well‑timed info to your drive. It’s great to hear the audio triggered automatically along the way and wrapped up right where you expected. We appreciate you sharing your experience!
We enjoyed this very much We drove from Kamloops to Revelstoke but it works in either direction. They had fun facts and historical character actors sharing info. Each vignette is only a few minutes long. I enjoyed the information about the Canadian railway and how they chose that pass. It was a fun thing to do and not very expensive.
Thank you so much for the 5⭐ review! We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the drive between Kamloops and Revelstoke. It’s great to know the fun facts and character voices added something interesting to your trip. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, and we’re happy the tour made the drive even more enjoyable.
Over all good, just need better directions how to use, the actually tour was good, but difficult to know how to use the app, especially with a rental car which I guess a lot of people would be using
Thanks for the great review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the tour itself. We appreciate your note about using the app—especially in a rental car—and we’re working on making setup even clearer for future travelers. Safe travels and hope to see you on another tour soon!
We had challenges keeping the route connected and so would regularly skip back to the beginning. We also don’t have children so the style of the commentary was annoying to us. We ended up reading it out to avoid the tone and the dropped connections. It was okay but having purchased a previous one for Joshua Tree which was great, I was disappointed in this one
Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the connectivity issues you experienced and understand your frustration. We also appreciate your comments regarding the commentary style not aligning with your preferences. We'll take this into account for future improvements. If there's anything else you'd like to share please let us know.
what a great idea ! made the road trip so much fun and flew by. fun facts about the area. i would highly recommend everyone doing this. I look forward to doing another one on our next road trip.
Thank you for your great review and for recommending our tour to others! Word-of-mouth is the best compliment we could ask for.
Some of the commentary was more oriented for children in the car. Some of the commentary was only very loosely related to where we were. There were many interesting sites that I wish had commentary like some of the old bridges we passed.
Thanks for your review. We appreciate your feedback and will take your comments into consideration as we work to improve our tours.
What a cool way to keep occupied and learn about the places you are seeing as you drive. We had no issues with the audio connection in the car. Everything worked like a charm. I will definitely try to find more audio driving tours on my next adventure.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that you had a fantastic experience with our driving audio tour.
Unfortunately only English. You can't focus on that when you're driving. Would not and will not buy the product again.
Yes this product is only available in English. It does say that on the product listing.
What a wonderful idea!! We loved hearing about some of the sites that we were passing and their history. They even talked about some of the animals and we did get to see an eagle. The tour guides were entertaining and the quiz questions fun. A great way to learn about our country! Can’t wait for the next Tripvia trip!
Thanks for the review, we really appreciated it!
Something fun and different to do along the way! Some of the facts and information were interesting, some cheesy and some very "punny", but I like that sort of thing. Set it so it would just come on as we passed things. Got a free Starbucks drink out of it as well. I did well on their trivia questions. Worth it.
