GyPSy Guide is the most awesome “travel companion” we have ever had! Maps are ok for planning a trip or for looking back on them for memories, but GyPSy Guide is right there in the car with you explaining to you what you are looking at. He helps you decide which side trips to take by describing the level of difficulty and what you will see. He tells about upcoming pull-offs so you never miss an opportunity for a great picture. We were in southern Utah and knew nothing about the national parks except that there were a few there. We did Canyonlands and would surely have missed the highlight of our day, Mesa Arch, had he not convinced us to take the short hike. There were so many beautiful places to see that we would have missed had we not had our GyPSy Guide! The next day, we went to Arches, and it was incredible! It can be overwhelming trying to hurry up and find what the map says you are approaching, but not with him. He tells you exactly when you get to them and the best photo angles. Arches was my favorite, and we even retracked to see some areas twice!! He knew exactly where we were and continued teaching us about the wonders we were viewing. We decided to visit Capitol Reef the next day since we were nearby. I must admit, I wasn’t overly excited because I knew nothing about it. But thanks to GyPSy Guide, some of our best pictures and memories of our trip came from there. He definitely gets the credit for that!We are going to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons in June, and then Zion and Bryce’s this fall. There is no doubt that our GyPSy Guide will be right alongside us in the car!!

We recently took along the Gypsy audio trip thru both of these parks. We downloaded prior to our visit. There was no cell service or internet at the park. The narrator was always with us. A map was included to follow along, but we chose only to listen to the narrator. We just activated the audio as we came close to the park. The narrator started to tell us about the park, the history and made suggestions for photo op’s. The narrator told us when the pull off’s were coming up and what to expect. This audio trip made our adventure much more exciting. We didn’t miss a thing at the parks. If we chose not to stop, the narrator just knew and continued on the trip. I can’t say enough about these trips. We have used them before in Glasier and Yellowstone. We are presently working on Bryce and Zion. Most of all, my husband found the narrator quite amusing, not annoying. After all, he is with you quite awhile along the trip. We made sure our iPad was being charged as we drove and left it on all day. The narrator would come on and off as we approached areas of interest. We definately recommend and will continue to use when we travel to other areas. Just downloaded Grand Canyon. Gypsy, keep up the good work. Well appreciated.

First I want to say that we started out early in the morning hoping to beat the crowd. Although we thought most of the tour guidance on the app was good, all of the “have to” locations that the app suggested were completely full when we approached them. We later found that there were some other obtainable waterfalls that we not crowded that were not mentioned. So we ended up driving for hours and only stopped at 2 tourist stands to get banana bread and a treat. Ugggg, it was a really long day of just driving. I wish we had had a “heads up” that all the sights would be full and we would have cut our trip short. Also learning on the app the day of the trip that we needed tickets to the park 24 hours ahead of time was not helpful information. Last but not least, the history of the rulers was repetitive and was not what we wanted to listen to the whole way down the mountain. We thought the guide was giving directions to get down but instead gave an account of the rulers. Although I think this app is a great idea and had some great info going up, it missed some opportunities to see some sites that our guide book had mentioned. On the morning of we chose to forgo the guidebook info and solely use this app. We would use the guidebook next time. As I shared before, without opportunities to park and explore because of the crowdedness, we ended up with a very long day of driving.

I used this guide in Oahu and The Big Island, and it was excellent! It has very accurate directions as you are driving, and definitely gives you lots of information about Hawaii, the culture, and the places you may visit or wish to visit as you drive along. The voice is actually very easy to listen to, and we chose this app over Shaka app, as we found the voice easier to listen to in this app. It comes on easily. It automatically starts talking through your radio when attached to your CarPlay and shuts off when it is finished. So you can listen to music in the meantime, or just turn the radio off. Sometimes it repeats when you go through a place more than once, but there are usually different stories when you go to a place and when you come back on the same road. The GPS was also excellent, and worked better than the Waze we were using to drive! This was able to guide us when Waze was unable to locate where we were. We travel all around the Big Island, and had a great tour just listening to it and stopping at different locations. Even the kids got a kick out of it! The price is good as well. Highly recommended for Hawaii! I haven’t used it anywhere else yet.
