  1. 3/5Preliminary comments

    Just at the start, the Waldorf Astoria is no more. It is now the Caledonian. It may have confused a few folk, including me. Just a thought.

  2. 2/5Not always current and freezes frequently

    I love backroads travel but this app is really not great. I can’t find it in the App Store, I occasionally freezes into a white space and has to be closed and reopened, and the on the ground trip leaders have no ability to update it with changes. It is hard to open as the user is sent to Ride with GPS with no explanation and there is no way to have more than one trip open simultaneously so if one loss a new one, one has to go back through the entire routine to get the other one! Also we he links only come in email with a NUMBER of the reservation, not the location of the trip which is super confusing. And finally, the actual dates of “day 1, day 2 “ etc aren’t displayed which is just ridiculous.

  3. 4/5Excellent snapshots and better than the daily paper sheets

    Really good daily snapshots that are more pointed than the travel planner. Backroads gives you access a week before you trip which informs my final packing choices. On trip, it eliminates the thousands of questions my spouse and kids ask about the plan for the day. Not the most sophisticated app but I think that’s intentional. You don’t need to be tech savvy to use it and I believe it works offline/when you have no cell service. Also really helpful when planning the On Your Own (OYO) activities and meals.

  4. 5/5Your company has its own APP!!!

    It’s not very often you come across a tour company that has their own iPhone app! Well, guess what, here we are! This app makes their touring experience soooo much more enjoyable and navigable. Thanks Backroads! Update: thekrak77 doesn’t seem to understand that the whole point of this app is meant to supplement the entire touring experience for those who book trips through BackRoads. Unless you have a tour booked through BackRoads, then there isn’t any reason to be using this app.

  5. 5/5Enriches my experience!

    I am using the app to review my trip I finished two weeks ago. I am thrilled to be able to do this now that I have a bit of time. Seeing the route maps after having completed the rides is great. I can visualize and remember each day! I just hope I won’t be denied access any time soon so I can continue to reminisce, and share how great Backroads was with my friends who might be interested in coming next ime!
