Wayfarer GPS Audio Guides Reviews

We downloaded WayfarerGPSAudioGuides and bought the cruise. Near waypoint 4, WayfarerGPSAudioGuides announced a Detour and sent us through several miles of beautiful almond orchards, to Wamble Road, then north, taking us into Oakdale. Next, to SR 108 and 10 miles east to historic Knight’s Ferry. From there, west along SR 108 to Orange Blossom Road and east along that road to end up at Knight’s Ferry again, where WayfarerGPSAudioGuides directed us to go west on SR 108, again. After nearly 4 hours on the tour, we felt we were on an endless Detour, but we had no more time available, so we quit an went home.

We enjoyed the day and the scenery, but WayfarerGPSAudioGuides was of little help.

Unlike GPS route guidance, WayfarerGPSAudioGuides gave us no sense of certainty that we were approaching or at a waypoint, street, or turn, or whether we were actually on or off of the tour route. The narrator talked, but that narrative seemed to be linked only to some of the waypoints. We would have preferred having a route map and listening to individual commentaries, keyed to waypoints, that we could call up when we wanted them.

We had difficult adjusting to the synchronization of our driving and the talk because the tape starts in the very busy streets of Santa Monica! The first three sites were frustratingly not worth all our trouble.
The jokes are not funny.
The music you have no option to turn off is irritating.
Sorry to post a bad review but it’s not well done.

I’ve been hearing about WayfarerGPSAudioGuides. I am so excited to have it downloaded and ready to give it a go. I love how you can save the tours and listen back on them. Can not wait for my 1st tour!

Ideal activity for entertaining out of town guests. Cheap but enjoyable and interesting.

Would definitely recommend!

The creators really know their stuff and are well-educated on the area. Highly recommend doing the tour with someone.

Took this cruise through beautiful almond orchards as far as you could see. Also learned a lot about the rest of Modesto. Very welcoming town. Well done!

I’ve always wanted this kind of app.
Kudos to the developer! Now I can enjoy travel in the comfort of my home even when this pandemic’s over.

I can’t remember the other apps exactly - one was in Hawaii - the other in Canada but this one is way more interesting. Wish they were international.

I was able to create an account in seconds and get going. What a great way to enjoy your drive and learn along the way. Highly recommended!

We were looking for something fun to do during COVID and this was it! It was great to get out of the house and take a trip up the coast. Learning all the history behind the area was so interesting and the stories were great! Definitely recommend! Great idea for an app! Can’t wait for new locations!

Today was a Birthday Celebration for my sister and we had a great time on the YOLO, Farms and …tour. The narration along the way was entertaining and educational. While it took us a bit longer than the two hours, we stopped at a couple of place and enjoyed ourselves. The tour was a bargain in entertainment $$ and having the ability to stop when and where we wanted was convenient. Thank you Ric for your assistance when requested and for the fun!!!
PS those of us that have went on the tour have spent time in YOLO since kids attended UCD, but we never ventured like we did today. If you’re doing a college visit, take the tour for greater assessments in decision-making.

I took the tour as a way to get out of the city for a few hours and really enjoyed it! There was a lot I didn’t know about the history of Malibu and the PCH and I liked the narrator’s voice.
Would recommend if you’re looking for a pandemic-friendly road trip!

My friends told me about this ride so I zipped out to Santa Monica to try it. It felt good to get out of my house to be honest. I’ve always loved Malibu and driving on the PCH... but haven’t been out that way in a while. Pretty interesting tour... makes me wish I wasn’t lazy and hadn’t stopped surfing!

I’m never one for guided tours when I travel. I like finding my own way. BUT! I was very pleasantly surprised by the Malibu tour. It was thoroughly enjoyable, legitimately interesting, and unexpectedly funny. WayfarerGPSAudioGuides was easy to use, and the tour was thoughtfully written and well-narrated. Looking forward to trying some of the other tours on our next trip.

How great to not only learn about the history of Malibu but to also find hidden gems we never knew we were missing— despite driving this route hundreds of times! I will be recommending to my out of town guests, and our 6&8 year old can’t wait to explore our new finds more in depth! Can’t wait until you add more cities to your tours!

We didn’t know what to expect , but this was just an awesome family Saturday. We started the podcast as instructed, and just enjoyed the narration, the history/factoids, stops for food, recreation , etc. Yes it’s “touristy”, and perhaps there are more authentically local places, but we are tourists from the Bay Area 😁; and for a low-key day trip to Modesto/Oakdale, this was great! Easy to navigate, clear app.

I wasn’t sure what to expect of taking a self guided tour, but I was pleasantly surprised! WayfarerGPSAudioGuides was easy to use and the directions were really simple to follow 😌
All of the fun facts and stories kept my friends and I quite entertained!!
Even though the tour we took was around 2 hours long, stopping at their recommended waypoints turned one tour into a whole day adventure!🏃🏽‍♂️We will definitely be checking out another tour soon!

Wow!! We took the Malibu guided tour yesterday - it was so informative and fun!! I am a sucker for historical anecdotes and this tour has given me a whole new appreciation of the PCH and Malibu coast line... I also admittedly delight in Golden Age Entertainmet Industry Gossip and I felt like I was being in on some fabulous VIP secrets. Absolutely loved it. It was easy, well paced and I thought the narrator was very engaging while not overpowering. I found the musical transitions relaxing and they put me in the perfect mood for a fun, chill adventure.
Having not been out of the house in months - this guided drive up the coast was the perfect mini vacation!!

WayfarerGPSAudioGuides was so helpful! My family and I were visiting malibu after helping my brother move into L.A.. We had no idea where to go and how to do it and the suggestions the tour gave us were amazing! The Getty villa was my favorite stop, the art and history displayed there is impressive! My favorite part was the architecture itself.

To eat we went to the Neptunes Net! I loved the clam chowder! And everything for a good price! I would definitely go again.

WayfarerGPSAudioGuides itself was easy to use, my parents have a hard time with new technology or apps but they seemed to be at ease the whole time, especially because we could take all the time we wanted!

Unexpected treat! Had no idea about the cool stuff in Malibu. Tour was easy to enjoy. I know the writers - they did a good job. Give it a try.
