What is a self-guided audio tour?
A narrated tour that plays on your own phone, triggered by GPS as you reach each stop. You buy it once, open the link, download it on Wi-Fi, and the stories play by themselves in the car and on foot. No guide, no group, no schedule.
How much does it cost?
The San Nicolas and Baby Beach Day is $14.99 for your whole car, up to 4 phones, launch price for the first 100 cars. Mr. Pineapple's Treasure Hunt is $19.99 per family. No per-person pricing.
Do I need to download an app?
No. The tour opens in your phone's browser. Tap "Download this day" once on Wi-Fi and it works with no signal at all, stories and map included.
How long is the San Nicolas and Baby Beach Day?
About 25 minutes of narrated driving in, about 50 minutes walking the essentials, 80 with the extras, 10 minutes to Baby Beach, then as long as you like on the sand. By bus the road stories play too, since the L1 and L900 drive the same roads; the essentials walk alone is about 50 minutes.
Is it kid-friendly?
Very. The puzzles are made to be solved together, word hunts, find-the-detail challenges, photo missions. One price covers the whole family.
How do I get the tour after paying?
Instantly. Your access link opens right in your phone's browser the moment checkout completes, and we email it to you too, so you can start on the spot or save it for tomorrow.
What if we get stuck on a puzzle?
Every stop has a built-in hint, and if you're really stuck, a "show me the exact spot" map link. Nobody stays stuck; the town always wins you back.
What if it rains, or our plans change?
Your tour stays valid 12 months; pause and pick it up tomorrow, or next trip. Never started at all? Full refund within 14 days. We call it the sun-proof promise.
Full policy here.
Who narrates the tour?
A professional audio-tour narrator over a soft steel-pan bed, the way a good museum guide speaks, with every fact researched in San Nicolas. Connect the phone to the car or let the speaker carry it. One purchase covers up to 4 phones, and the full text of every stop is on screen too.
What if my battery dies halfway?
Your progress saves on the phone automatically, stamps, puzzles, everything. Charge up, reopen your link, and the story continues exactly where it stopped.
Can we split it over multiple days?
Absolutely. Your progress saves automatically, stamps and all. Do half today, finish at golden hour tomorrow.
When's the best time to go?
Morning before the midday sun, or golden hour in the late afternoon. Tip from the locals: many San Nicolas spots rest on Sundays, weekdays and Saturdays give you the full experience.
