Self-guided Audio Driving Tour In Icefields Parkway

Audio worked two times out of many where it should have. Tried to fix many times. Gave up because I wanted to get on with the tour.

I’ve never tried an audio tour before so I had some doubts but the guide was very informative. I liked that the narration was different in each direction along the parkway. Great deal for $20.

Great information Glad we could hear the history

We were very happy with our "guide". He was funny and very informative. I would definitely recommend purchasing this to enhance your jpurney.

This guide was awesome! It made riding hours through the Icefields Parkway so much more interesting. What was especially interesting were the stories of the people who first explored and why they came and the difficulties they faced. I highly recommend.

I have told you enough times that with out WiFi it is worthless. Now leave me alone. Lesson learned I guess but will remember for the future rather I will use you again

This never worked. I feel scammed. It asked for a code, I submitted it, then it asked for another code from another device which I didn't have access to...

Excellent self guided trip. So informative in a fun way. Really well explained and helped us choose where to stop. Really easy to use. We then upgraded to include lake Louise and Yoho NP

Very helpful, excellent informative commentary.

We would have driven past some incredible experiences without this guide. We also learned how the Canadian Rockies were created, many interesting nature facts and a little bit of history. I will be hoping that a guide along will be available for my next road trip.

We were a family of 6 driving the Icefields Parkway in a minivan. This guided program was fantastic. Because it is GPS-guided, the narrator knows where you are and you can pause anytime. The guide gave us a lot of information not just about the sights we were to see, but also about the history of the road itself, the original exploration of the area, the wildlife, etc. Highly recommended. Addendum: the Icefields Parkway drive is amazing! Allow at least 10 - 12 hours for this.

Perfect experience! Really great product. Will use for my next trip.

This tour was awesome! We learned so much about the Icefield Parkway! We even listened to it both ways, to Jasper and back to Banff! I would highly recommend this tour!

Being 80 years old it took awhile for me to figure it out but when I did I like it so far. My wife and I leave from Western Wisconsin September 2 on a 12 day roadtrip. We are very excited

This was very entertaining and informative. The interface is great and we all liked the experience of driving and listening.

I would highly recommend this audio tour. We used it while traveling from Lake Louise to Jasper. Lots of great information and directions to fabulous points of interest. We would have missed these otherwise. The tour is GPS controlled so it knew exactly where we were at all times. Very easy to use – played through CarPlay.

Enjoyed the narrative and interesting history as we drove. Also the clear explanation of distance and difficulty of hikes.

Enjoyed listening to the commentary while driving. Very informative and interesting. Nice to learn both history and facts.

The audio guide was great. It allowed us to go at our own speed and provided interesting information.

Great audio tour along the drive

My husband and I used this audio tour of the Icefields Parkway both directions (Lake Louise to Jasper, then Jasper to Lake Louise). The tour guide has a very soothing voice which made the drive on the 2-lane road less stressful. He pointed out lots of points of interest we were approaching before we got there. It gave us time to exit the road versus passing them by. We would have missed some great stops without the app. There is no cell service on the Icefields Parkway. However, the app works using a satellite signal so it's not an issue. We turned it on before leaving Lake Louise the one direction and before leaving Jasper the other way when we still had cell service. The app kicks in at at the entrance to the Parkway on each end. There are lots of helpful tips included too (ex. if you start to get on the Parkway with less than 3/4 tank of gas it tells you to turn around and fuel up - only 1 gas stop on the Parkway). We met a family on one of our tours and told them about the app. They purchased it before they finished completing the other tour (they were driving from Jasper to Lake Louise that afternoon). I'd highly recommend this app to anyone making this drive.

No issues with the app and connecting to our rental car. The audio tour worked perfectly and was easy to navigate. Definitely was worth the 20$ I spent. Very informative and gave lots of history and information about the mountains and good places to stop along the way.

Loved all the details and history of the ice fields parkway. My husband is a big history buff and he really enjoyed it. The narrator has a great voice. We will definitely be doing more tours like this!

We nicknamed the narrator Jasper and truly enjoyed his commentary as we traveled the I Icefields Parkway. It was very helpful to know when to turn off and how long to expect to visit each area. We used the guide both directions and learned more through repetition. I would recommend this guide and will use guide along in the future.

Very informative and a must 👏 detail description of the parkway. Hidden unknown stops. Do happy to have discovered this app and at a very reasonable price.

Really enhanced our family’s enjoyment of the icefields drive, highly recommended!

Overall we really enjoyed the tour. It was informative and well timed. We enjoyed the mix of content and the recommendations were decent.

Thank you so much for providing this tour. It was really a plus to have the onsite information, also to be able to use it both directions on the Icefields Parkway.

We drove the Icefields Parkway last week and were so pleased we had downloaded the audio guide. We were talked through the history and geology of the mountains. We had viewpoints and places of interest flagged up in good time to give us plenty of notice to turn off the road to them. Overall, the commentary vastly enhanced our whole experience. We only had time to drive half the road and were even more impressed to find the commentary was different on the return journey. If you are intending to drive the Icefields Parkway, I would totally recommend this as great value for money.

The Icefield Partkway audio tour was wonderful. First the narrator's voice was pleasant and engaging. The content included geological, historical and cultural information. All chatter in the car stopped to listen in when we approach a site included in the tour. Everyone agreed it added a lot to our drive.

We listened on the way to Jasper and on the way back. Great advice on hikes helped an elderly relative decide which hikes to go on.

We listened to this on the way back from the Columbia Icefield location because we forgot to download for the way up. Lots of fun facts and stories but also pauses to take in scenery or suggestions of where to pull over to experience more or take photos.

We have loved having GuideAlong as our guide on many road trips. A great balance of humor, local information and history. The side trips and hidden spots recommended have all been amazing amd the must visit lists provided have never led us astray! Highly recommended any of the tours to have a friendly , informative voice as you drive along for the ride. Enjoy Maui, Western Canada, Icefield parkway, and Niagara falls!

It was like having a guide sitting in your car, explaining everything! We highly recommend it. It made the drive so interesting!

This worked great. If we had done the drive without it we would have missed so much! Some history and great steps along the way.

Great balance of background of area, points of interest and needed information. This area is breathtaking, historic and worth every minute of the journey

Great to listen to instead of digging out a guidebook and tracing to stay focused on driving. GPS location worked very well and works in both directions.

I am so thrilled that I used this. There is so many things to see and do. It's easy to get overloaded. This tour was awesome , pointed out the places to see and hikes and let you know the difficulty level. I feel like I saw everything in this trip. I will be downloading the one for Banff

Great information , highly recommended. The information provided was useful and helped us navigate our journey better.

This audio guide worked brilliantly on our recent trip. I'd downloaded it all before hand (app and tour) and it worked seamlessly once we arrived at the start of the tour and throughout. We learnt lots more about the area from 'The Dude' that really added to our experience - made a couple of stops that we might otherwise have driven past. Would definitely recommend and a bargain at £10. We used it both heading North and then again the next day when driving back South down the parkway.

A great history lesson of the area travelled. The drive itself is beautiful and the stories described provide even more life to it.

This guide was great company on the Icefields Parkway.. identifying where we were and giving appropriate information in an easy manner. Would buy some more of these for other similar trips.

We loved the narrators voice and all the information he gave us along the way . The program was very easy to use.

Best money we spent on the trip to Banff and Jasper. The app was easy to use and very helpful. I was amazed how well the audio commentary matched the locations even where cell service was non existent . You all get the benefit of getting driving directions to the most popular locations. There were many tips you may not find anywhere else. We also noted how current the info was as changes to access Moraine Lake were just changed this year and the guide knew it.lots of trivia and history of the area

Provided light historical and geological background while pointing out the most beautiful hikes and viewing areas during our drive.

This self guided tour was exceptional. It enabled us to go at our own pace, learn a little fascinating history, and visit the real highlights along the parkway from Banff to the Icefields that we might otherwise have missed. An unbelievable value at $7.99!!

Our whole family enjoyed this audio tour. It helped us decide where to stop and made our day super special.

You download the app to your phone - enter the payment code - and then drive to somewhere on the route, the app using the phone GPS to keep you tracked. This was guide is ESSENTIAL and low cost. The naration was very informative but light and humerous. You travel at your own pace the guide telling you what you should see and those you must not miss. The hire car we were in used Apple CarPlay and the naration came through the car sound system quietening the radio as required faultlessly. Absolutely brilliant.

This audio tour is a MUST for those making the journey on the parkway. The scenery is amazing but we would missed so many stops to see waterfalls, hikes and views without the information. The quizzes along the way made us feel like Jefferson was along with us. Also appreciated the history lessons and facts. Just a note, had 2 geologists in the car and you may want to review some of the geology facts. Otherwise, we loved this. Great investment!
