Travel Tip: Driving Guides
Our families have been enjoying GyPSy Guides. The narrated driving tour app uses your device’s location service to automatically trigger and play entertaining commentary about your surroundings as you drive along scenic driving routes. Your location is determined by GPS satellites; so no data roaming, cell network or WiFi is required while touring. Tours are now available in 25 locations throughout the US and Canada including for all four major Hawaiian Islands; national parks such as Zion, Rocky Mountain, Yellowstone, Glacier and Yosemite along with scenic roads in Vermont, the Overseas Highway in The Florida Keys and Icefields Parkway. Just download the app over a WiFi network before you go and listen to off-line! A few guides are free (Calgary to Banff), but most range from $3.99 on up to $19.99 for a bundled guide. Check your cell phone app store to download.
