Overall, this was a good experience with some interesting spots. It was a good way to encourage us to get out of the city and see parts we otherwise wouldn't have while on our trip. We did have some challenges because there are no actual maps or driving directions provided, which there should be since the instructions also say "headed to a place with limited cell service". We had a hard time getting Apple or Google Maps to recognize the destinations, even while we had service, which meant we missed our turn and the stop we were most excited about. Basic driving directions from the major city (get on i95 west, etc) should be included - both for those who are not familiar with the starting point and those who are more technologically challenged. The included maps were also useless and it wasn't until we stopped and got a park service map that we really figured it out - especially for places where it may be less wall traveled roads, I would expect a better quality map to be included.

This was a fabulous adventure. Just the right mix of history, culture and nature with opportunity to get in some steps. Only one issue - the lack of cell service made getting from one destination to the next a bit tricky, as we could not just enter it into GPS and see the map. Would recommend providing a map. but only enough to get to the next destination. The maps provided were not useful in navigating.

Highly recommend. Bring bug spray...we didn't and couldn't find any on the road...go figure. make sure you save time for a cold beer and some fresh fish at the end of the trip. Fourth stop was the best.

I've known about this area for years, but wanted to explore it further. Wow...so many great gems. The first stop allowed us to choose between an undiscovered scenic route or one that we've been on before. Highly recommend the scenic route but only if you have lots of time!
