What To Expect

1

We’re almost at Canyon Junction Bridge. There’s a lot going on there: First, it’s a great sunset spot. Be sure to come back here later. Second, there are great views of the Watchman and other mountains. If you find parking, take it and listen to the Learn More stories about the peaks. Third, this is where the road splits: Turn left if you want to drive along the Scenic Road and visit the Narrows, Angel’s Landing, or the Emerald Pools. Note: The tour is over 25 miles long, with more than 30+ audio stories, and takes about 1-2 hours to complete. New, Lifetime access, no expiry. Use it anytime, on any trip, as many times as you want.

  • Informative Audio tour

    My husband and I really enjoyed this Self-Driving Tour. It gave some great information about what we were looking at. We each wore an ear bud and continued with the audio tour while we rode on the Shuttle Bus provided by the park. It was perfect!!

    This app worked perfectly driving in any direction. Lots of good tips and it was great to have a hands-free narrated experience.

  • The Perfect Zion Adventure!

    This was the perfect way to experience Zion National Park! The commentary provided valuable insights, leading us to all the main viewpoints and trails. We appreciated the flexibility to explore at our own speed while still getting a thorough, expert overview of the park's history and geology. Highly recommended!

  • Need practice.

    This is a great idea. We had some struggles trying to connect two pairs of earbuds to one phone with the download on it! We wound up splitting one pair, which was fine. But there was some “jerkiness “ to the process as we were on and off the shuttle. Then our earbuds died. I could do it better a second time.

  • Totally worth the money

    Fantastic. As you drive along the route, it automatically gives you points of interest on the drive and discusses historical tidbits.

  • love these guided tours,...

    love these guided tours, with all the extra tidbits of information about the history of things as we walk or right through it. The only drawback is when in a national park, with sketchy signal, when you stop/restart a tour, it takes a longer amount of time to catch up with current location to continue. So long sometimes that it will start talking again about something you passed 15 minutes ago,

  • Sorry, but the "self-guided driving & shuttle tour" was a bust!

    BrentB874,Feb 17, 2025

    - Review from Tripadvisor

    1.00

    There was no "self-driving audio tour/map" to use. There was only a ticket that appeared to be for only a shuttle tour (but the shuttles don't operate this time of year). I would not recommend this to others.

  • Not the best experience

    Lynda H,Oct 20, 2024

    - Review from Viator

    3.00

    The app kept repeating segments we already heard. Choppy, at best. The frustration of figuring out how to sync the app to our locations undermined the entire experience. Yes, I am very data savvy. This should have been a snap.

  • Unable to launch

    Lesley C,Jun 23, 2024

    Was unable to launch the tour after watching the tutorial so we weren’t able to use it. I’m sure it may have provided interesting information.

  • Problems with app

    Good explanation but the app is no suitable with every cel, it works with iphone and I beleive it is a point to be improved.
