Great DIY Tour but Be Prepared to Bypass Stops.
Martha_B
, Aug 2022
DIY tour is great for those who like to go at their own pace. Good narration & easy to follow. However, Bar Harbor area is extremely busy in summer months. We began our tour at 8:30 am & 90% of stopping points were inaccessable due to heavy volume (no available parking). I immagine same would be true during fall foliage season. Nevertheless, tour was still enjoyable & worth the $10.
Response from Host , Aug 2022
Thanks so much Martha! I'm thrilled that my tour added to your learning and that you enjoyed it. I have 100 other tours in the USA. Please check them out on your next vacation. Also, just to remind you that the tour you bought is yours for a lifetime. So, you can listen to it at home or on your next visit also.
Not worth $10

The App (Acadia) was terrible. 1. it kept skipping back to sessions already listened to. Happened every couple of minutes. 2. Didn't like to 'pause' when we were driving to next destination. Would skip back to older session. 3. Didn't provide much history / information as we had hoped.
Response from Host , Aug 2022
Hi Jeanne, the tour’s audios trigger automatically. This type of confusion happens when the audios are forcibly played manually. Then when they trigger automatically where intended, it appears that the tour has skipped back / glitched out. The best experience comes from simply following the instructions and driving — the app will play the audios all on its own without any handling!
Narrated Self Guided Tour

The app was easy to download and follow. It was great to have the automatic narration at all points of interest. The timing was perfect.

Very good tour of Acadia National Park. Useful and all the highlights. Like having your own private tour at your pace. A little difficult to start sound in the beginning
Well worth the money

We really enjoyed listing all the information at various locations. The views were wonderful. I am not much on expressing my thoughts but we all enjoyed the trip.
Nice experience

Highly recommended - started and stopped as we moved through the park. Gave a great narrative - we stopped and noticed things we wouldn’t of without the tour.
Value for money

The self guided tour was a wonderful way to experience the fullness of the Acadia park at your own pace. It was easy to follow along, accurate representation of the park and you could choose to stop as long as you wanted at each site/point of interest. The only piece that was missing is letting us know in advance that Cadillac summit required a registration pass in advance. My husband and I figured it out and bought it but would recommend making that clear in the app instructions
The audio tour really explained a lot and was well worth the cost

The first day it rained and was foggy but it added an experience that was fairly ominous. Driving up Cadillac mountain in the fog was a bit eery as you could not see over the side of the road, it added excitement to the drive. Having the audio tell you what you should be seeing but not being able to see it made you realize just how thick the fog was. We went up the following day when it was sunny and enjoyed all that we didn’t see the first day
Great experience for thebprice

It was helpful in riding the park and seeing what to get out of car and look out. The history and science was interesting also

We loved the history! We also liked that we could stop and go at our own pace and rewind if we missed something!
Awesome. Very helpful and informative

I enjoyed the stories behind the different points. Interesting points that I never knew. Was very helpful knowing where the next information site coming up
Fantastic!

Our first visit to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park was fantastic! Highly recommend the visit to the park and the Viator audio tour. Looking forward to using the service on other trips.
Great

It was great we were able to go at our own pace and the information was great as well. The park was closed in some areas but it was due to the off season. We still enjoyed it.
Beautiful place, but glitchy app.

Incredible scenery, no crowd in April, plenty of short walks. The app only allowed me to heat narration with headphones in. I followed the instructions and turned cellular off. It looked like the sound was playing but I could only hear it using my headphones ad we drove. It played fine in the riom we stayed in before we got started.

I was expecting a step by step route to all the points of interest. You had to travel on your own then once you got to the point then you would get a voice education

Was great, but the road was closed after Jordan pond, so we missed the last 25% of the tour.
Would be great if we could finish the tour when we come back next year.

Audio tour provided insight and was well worth the price. Will look into the company’s other tours on future trips.

Well worth the $8. Gave us a good overview of Acadia. Make sure you download the app where you have good WiFi.

Decent but not worth the $8
Jocelyn_T
, Nov 2021
When I purchased this, I wasn't sure how much I'd enjoy it but I figured it was only $8. And while I didn't have a horrible experience, and I learned some good tidbits from it, I don't feel like it was worth $8. I would rather have had a map labeled with some of the information that was in the tour. The audio part was a bit unwieldy as it would interrupt conversation, and if I wanted to click to the next section ahead of time (to avoid interrupted conversations), it would restart the audio snippet when our car reached the area it was supposed to start in. I would also have loved to hear more about the indigenous people who lived in the area (there was a lot more information on the people who colonized it).
Response from Host , Nov 2021
Thanks for your feedback! We’ve added as many wonderful stories as possible but because of space limitations (so that the app isn’t continuously talking non-stop for two hours) some of the stories are within the Learn More sections — please check those out! We’re also consistently making updates and upgrades so we’d love to hear any specific recommendations you may have. There’s not much we can do about our stories interrupting a conversation in the car — I can only be glad that it was at least interesting!
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
