Very interesting and informative - We enjoyed very much the way the narration guide told us where to go and knew when we arrived, so it could automatically start speaking. The content was just right, informative and light-hearted.

Easy to follow self-paced tour - This was a great tour that was easy to follow and allowed for personal side trips as you took it. No pressure to keep up. I learned so much about Catalina Island I wouldn’t have known without its excellent narrative. I will undoubtedly take more VoiceMap audio tours. Perfect format for a solo traveler.

Catalina highlights at your own pace! - This was a great way to learn about the island, while taking a leisurely stroll! There was lots of interesting and entertaining information. We felt like we got to see and learn about the highlights of Catalina, while exploring at our own pace. Fantastic!

Nice self tour. Took a... - Nice self tour. Took a minute to figure the app out. But, eventually I figured it out. Plus you will always have the app on your phone for future city tours

Walking tour of Catalina - If you want to quickly and easily learn about Santa Catalina this is a very easy way to do it. Simple, in-expensive and very professional. Headphones recommended but we got by without them. All you need is your phone..

Very nice walking tour! - Very informative and easy to use. All four of our group was able to easily hear the narrative with just one of us downloading the necessary app. We visited during off season, so may be different during high season.

Pleasant experience - Fun and relaxing place to go for the day. Very beautiful but not a lot of beach. Not too crowded, even for a holiday weekend. Happy with the choice to give it a try. Prob better to either get a room to chill in or don't plan for more than a 12 hour day. You can easily run out of things to do.

Very bad - Never found code that was to be emailed. Did not figure out how to take tour. Maybe it’s me. Maybe directions not clear. Didn’t take tour. Wasted money.
