Chichen Itza: GPS Audio Guide

The amount of detail for each area we visited was very good. The auto start function based on GPS location was also very good. The only problem we had was the app crashed multiple times (app froze or just closed) on my iPhone and my iPad. Cellular was off, tour was downloaded locally to each device before leaving the hotel. Apple devices are relatively new (iPhone 11 and iPad Pro 2019) with 256GB memory each. iOS for each device was up to date. No other apps were open. Closing the app and then restarting it fixed the problem for a little while, but then it crashed again. Probably crashed 5-6 times over our 3 hour visit.

This was perfect. We were there with our family of 4 and we kind of hate following a hired tour guide around. They are always in a hurry to be done with your tour so they can get paid to do another one. So you end up not being able to see everything you want to or linger. With this App you get good information, it follows your pace, and it’s affordable. We downloaded to 2 devices and the boys took one at their pace and the girls took the other. We each shared a set of ear pods so we could still talk as we went. Perfect.

My boyfriend and I got this app to run away from being ripped off by tour guides. Loved it! It explained everything we needed to know and the gps route showed in the map is the best route to truly appreciate chichen itza! Would you rather spend 7 dols or 50 + tip in a guy who won’t even go through the whole archeological site with you? I saw other couples also using this app there and guides were openly criticizing and mocking us, which proved our point: they are not worth it.
