Works really well. My only complaint is that it doesn't include ALL of the potential stops along the kancamagus. It does give great stories and history though and we were able to see some things we had missed in the past because of it. Still very much worth the $7 and download.

Audio moves with you as you drive down the highway. Recommends different scenic overlooks and stops. Fills in the gaps with interesting stories about the leaf colors, tribal legends, etc.

This is one of the best tours I have ever had the opportunity to experience. There is so much history and education as well as stories to personalize the experience. Absolutely love. The best $4.99 I spent on our East Coast road trip.
