Q&A

Q: Is there a suggested age range for this audio tour experience?

A: There's really no strict age limit, but it's perfect for families with kids who can follow along and appreciate stories. I took my 10-year-old, and he loved the tales from the Gold Rush era! Just be sure to keep it interesting for younger kids with fun stops like the parks in Murphys.

Q: What should we wear for the tour? Is it mostly in the car?

A: You'll be in and out of the car quite a bit, especially at the stops like Sonora and Jamestown. I'd recommend wearing comfy clothes and good shoes for walking around. Check the weather beforehand because it can get chilly in the evening, so layering is key!

Q: How does the GPS playback work? Can we stop and start at will?

A: The GPS playback is super easy! Just make sure you've got the VoiceMap app installed before you start. You can pause it whenever you want, and it automatically resumes when you get back in the car. Plus, you can explore the stops as long as you want without missing anything!

Can't wait for our Highway 49 drive this weekend!

Just booked this self-guided audio tour for the family! Can't believe it's free! We’re starting from Angels Camp and planning to check out Murphys and Jamestown too. My kids are really into history, so I think they’ll love Lynn’s stories. Has anyone else done this tour? Any tips on the best stops?

Thoughts on the Highway 49 audio tour?

I’m thinking of getting this tour for my parents for their anniversary. They've always wanted to explore the Gold Rush towns but haven't made it there yet. Do you think the audio tour would be engaging enough for them? Also, how's the parking situation at the main stops?
