Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review 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.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The property was exactly as described and the hosts, Jess & Casey, were wonderful to work with. They anticipated our every need and answered every question.
The home was clean and full of everything a visitor would need. We completely enjoyed our stay. The only regret was that we didn’t stay longer. Such a beautiful home and location.

Really loved driving through the park! The views are amazing and purchasing the audio tour really enhanced the experience ten times over. Would highly recommend! There’s so much history and it makes you feel even more connected to the sights. We loved it!

Hi Captswife, thank you for sharing how much you loved exploring Shenandoah National Park - especially with our self-guided audio tour! The fact that the commentary enhanced your visit by 10 times blows us away, and truly makes our day to have that kind of an impact on someone's road trip. We hope to join you on more road trips - perhaps the Blue Ridge Parkway or the Smokies next time?

A nightmare. Could not connect for hours. When i finally connected, my ‘code’ was rejected as having been used to often.

Hi Yaakov, what you are describing is your wifi or cellular connection to activate and download the app and tour. That's not something we can control. We can see that you redeemed your code, but didn't download the app or tour. Our support team on the toll free number would have been happy to help but didn't hear from you. Please reach out so we can resolve.

Unfortunately, we forgot to turn it on. When we remembered the next day, of course it considered it complete and asked me to review…there was no way to retrieve it to hear it the next despite we still being in the area.

Hi Linda, there isn't a time/date limit or expiry in which to use the audio tours. They remain your and include free updates. You just open the tour again and tap START DRIVING. Would have been happy to help you on our toll free support but didn't hear from you.
