Audio tour worked well on my iPhone. Some nice historical notes about many of the locations. Lots of gps landmarks and they came on before the actual landmark which was very nice. I personally also liked the little triva quiz at end of each landmark.

We enjoyed learning about different areas on the Cabot Trail. We were directed to great viewpoints and given interesting facts about places along the trail. We were able to start from where we were staying, and also listened as we went back the other direction.

My wife and I bought the Cabot Trail Audio Driving Tour and really enjoyed it. We listened on our car audio as we drove the route. Each stop was activated by our GPS location. All were interesting and several were also entertaining. Highly recommend.

The audio tour was great to have on the Cabot Trail. It had a lot of great information and interesting bits of trivia. However, the tour was only for the counter-clockwise direction. It would be great to have an option switch it to the other direction.

Can I use the driving tour if I drive the Cabot Trail in the opposite direction (clockwise)?
