Joshua and the Family - It was great and so informative. Can’t wait to bring more family to visit. We did a few hikes and had some great views. The rocks and the gold mine were so cool.

This was the perfect tour... - This was the perfect tour for our family. We got to go through the park at our own pace while still learning about what was around us and hearing stories about the history of the park.

Great Value - This audio tour was invaluable on our trip to Joshua Tree. Be sure to download in advance. It gives lots of fun information about the landscape, history, and more. It tells you when to pull off for stops to see different things or head out on hikes. The narrator even tells you how long the hikes will take and whether they are easy, moderate, or challenging. We used the main west entrance and it started at the visitor's center and progressed from there. It was a day well spent.

Interesting and a bit surreal - The scenery was intriguing, and we enjoyed setting our own pace. The topography is very different from our home. It feels like a different world from where we live.

Enhances experience - It was useful to hear descriptions of the various sites. I also appreciated that the maps worked offline and the app was able to locate me. The app was a bit glitchy and I had to exit and restart a couple of times.

Audio Tours are the BEST - Audio tours are the best way to experience the NP's, because of what you learn as you drive through the various areas. We have used Adventures with Action for our last two NP trips, and I will definitely seek out.
