Stories drive human creativity and exploration forward. Good job you guys. Excited to listen to my first Detour.

I would love it even more if there can be more of these throughout the city so that I can listen in even through my normal routes. Spontaneity is not too strong on the current version. If there ever is a plan to recruit the beta users who want to record narrations, I would love to be one of them. *no guarantee that itd be good though ;)

Last year when I visited San Francisco, my girlfriend and I did a Detour of the Castro neighborhood. We learned so much from its diverse history and ended the tour speechless with our jaws on the floor.

• The audio tour syncs with everyone in your group, and it's so seamless.

• The GPS tours are beautifully curated. You can tell they spend weeks to months on getting each tour perfect. Incorporating sounds and clips from the era you're experiencing.

• Affordable: Each tour is just $5 for the entire group! Although, I personally believe they are well worth $5/person.

Since moving to San Francisco, I try to do at least one tour each weekend. I love learning about the extensive history of all my surrounding neighborhoods. 😃

Pros:

Hand down the best way to explore a new city!

Cons:

Not available in every city, but they're always adding more.

The product, unfortunately has been shut down. But, good news, I found an alternative to the product. It's an amazing app by the name of road channel. https://theroadchannel.com/
