Most informative, and clear instructions - This was by far the best tour we have ever purchased! He was engaging, funny, and all the while informative. The driving instructions were superb whether you were coming or going, didn’t matter.

Self guided tour with flexibility to stop and see sights. - This was a great way to drive around Lake Tahoe and learn bits of the history. The gps with the program knew exactly where we were, and started when we were near the points of interest. Worth the value.

Trip around Lake Tahoe - Loved the narrator and the stories. Would love to add where some restaurants are along the water. Also, let us know the cost of each area we stop at.

Past experience guided me to buy gypsy guide again - We took an abbreviated tour—didn’t go all around the lake and we were already in South Lake Tahoe so we joined the tour after the suggested starting points. To be fair, what we heard was great info but there was not a way we could turn the volume up and we could hardly hear the narration. It may have to do with the connections in my car since newer cars don’t have the cigarette lighter connections anymore so I just used my iPhone and the usb cable that connects me to Bluetooth. I couldn’t access the maps easily either.

Great way to learn about the lake - We enjoyed the Audio tour around Lake Tahoe. We heard many interesting facts about the lake and surrounding area. We have been to Lake Tahoe many times and still learned many new facts. We would have liked to have heard more such as something about Fannette Island and Capt Barter or maybe Cave Rock and how the tunnel came to be. Perhaps these were mentioned but we found that if we did not pay attention and click on the blue dots we missed some information. The narration did not always play.
