Ratings and Reviews
Helpful guide
Once we had the hang of the guides they worked pretty well, however, it was annoying to have questions about starting the guide when we were at the start point snd so had to select ‘ explore on own’ to remove the questions and prevent the only options being Use Google maps ‘ etc when we didn’t want to.
The other problem we had was not starting the Pacific Highway from San Francisco as we were already in Monterey, and the guide kept trying to send us Back to SF which we didn’t want to do. As most of the Big Sur was closed, and we just couldn’t get onto the guide in Monterey we ended up only picking it up in Santa Barbara and making our own way to there.
The information imparted ( especially in the Grand Canyon) was interesting and that guide worked very well.
Would definitely buy another trip if available for where we wanted to explore.

We appreciate your honest feedback, and we're sorry for the frustration with the starting points and routes. We're working on making the app more adaptable to different starting locations. If you have any further feedback or need help with the app, please get in touch at support@actiontourguide.com. Although, it's wonderful to hear you enjoyed the Grand Canyon guide. We hope to accompany you on many more tours!
Amazing
Saved a bunch in Mexico by purchasing 3 self guided tours for less than the price of a single tour guide. Love the fact the tour automatically starts as you enter the zone on the map and then automatically switches back to the map once you’ve heard the audio. Very informative and also provides additional information and resources.
Developer Response ,
Thank you so much for sharing your positive experience with our self-guided tours in Mexico! We're thrilled to hear that our tours were able to provide you with a cost-effective way to explore the area while still providing an informative and engaging experience.
We're delighted that you found our app's automatic tour start and map switching features to be helpful in navigating the tours. Our goal is to make the experience as seamless and user-friendly as possible, so we're glad that we were able to provide that for you.
We're also pleased to hear that you found the tours to be informative and that our app provided you with additional resources. We're constantly working to improve our content and provide our users with the best possible experience, so your feedback is greatly appreciated.
Thank you again for your support, and we hope that you'll continue to use our self-guided tours for future travel adventures
Very good content, but app is a bit clunky
Downloaded onto an iPhone 11 for the Chichen Itza tour. It worked fine, but the app is a bit clunky, but we thought the content was very good, very clear & informative and it was delivered well. Overall it was worth the money.
To address previous reviews: Yes, it will probably drain your battery a bit more than usual as the app uses your location, but I always carry a power bank when on holiday, so I was ready for this.
App feedback: the geo-fencing and auto-play is a good feature, but there were times when a clip I had already listened to would start playing, sometimes this would interrupt another clip I was listening to, meaning I had to open the app and reselect the clip I was previously listening to. Perhaps a new feature could be that once a clip has been played, it won’t automatically play again? Or possibly if a clip is playing, it shouldn’t be interrupted by another clip?
Also the UI is looking a little dated, it might be worth to get a UI designer to help with layouts. It didn’t impact the experience of the tour, but it would make the app feel more up to date.
Developer Response ,
I’m so glad you enjoyed the Chichen Itza tour! It’s definitely an amazing place to visit. I have great news on the UI front — we’ll have a major update coming out soon! The geofencing troubles are unusual but might have occured where a few pins are very close together — we’ll adjust them asap. I hope you get the chance to check out the other tours we offer whenever you go on your next adventure!
