A: Yes, you can definitely take kids along! There are no age restrictions for the Big Sur audio tour. It’s a family-friendly experience, and the storytelling is engaging enough to keep kids entertained. Just make sure they’re comfortable in the car for the duration of the drive, which can vary depending on how many stops you make!

Q: How do I handle parking at the stops along the route?

A: Most popular stops like McWay Falls and Pfeiffer Beach have designated parking lots, but they can fill up quick, especially on weekends. I’d recommend getting there early or during the week if you can. Just keep an eye out for roadside spots if the lots are full; just make sure you're not blocking traffic or in a no-parking zone.

Just did the Big Sur audio tour – it was a blast!

We recently drove the Pacific Coast Highway with the Big Sur self-guided audio tour, and wow, what an experience! The stories about the elephant seals and the hidden spots at Pfeiffer were so interesting. We started in Monterey and stopped at McWay Falls for some amazing photos. Plus, it was great to go at our own pace without feeling rushed. Highly recommend it for a fun day trip!

Considering gifting the Big Sur audio tour – need advice!

I'm thinking about buying the Big Sur audio tour for my brother’s family since they love road trips. I think it would be a fun way to explore the coast. Any tips on how the app works? Is it easy enough for them to use, or should I give them a little tutorial before they go?
