I don't know what we would have done without this gizmo. Definitely would have missed a lot of incredible sights. We rented a car for our first trip to the Canadian Rockies and picked up the Gypsy Guide GPS in Banff. Used it all the way to Jasper and back. It was like having a personal guide. Sure you can...

This was absolutely worth every cent and maybe more! The narration on this navigation device was informative beyond belief. We surely would have driven past many places without any real interest, but when "gypsy" informed us on the history of the areas, it made our trip so much better. We could have easily driven along roads and not paid particular... More

My wife & I used this from Vancouver on our road trip via Whistler, Jasper, Banff and back to Vancouver. We both found the information and guidance presented added real value to the trip - just like having a local guide sitting in the car telling you all the background, history & insights into everything you saw. It suggested places... More

The target audience for the GPS-based automated tour guides is a vehicle-based traveller in unfamiliar territory.

We hired our unit from Discover Banff Tours Lucy in the topur ofice was very good at running us through how to set it up and explained how it worked, she was very good at explaining that it would...

This was a very expensive toy to have on our trip, and it was a luxury that my husband and I argue about to this day whether it was worth having on our trip. I got the Gypsy Guide because of all the glowing remarks we saw on TripAdvisor. My husband was rather surprised when he heard I had splurged... More

Picked it up in banff, enjoyed thru Rockies, kelowna, Victoria and dropped it off in Vancouver. pIckup was fast, quick tutorial and off you go, drop off was fast tto. It was like having a local guide in the back seat. 8, 11 and 13 year old definitely learned alot about Canada's history and geography. Can't imagine either of us... More
