Diese malerische Fahrttour durch den Acadia Nationalpark beginnt in der Nähe von Bar Harbor an der historischen Sieur de Monts Spring, wo Sie die Wild Gardens of Acadia und das Nature Center erkunden. Von dort fahren Sie durch das charmante Dorf Otter Creek und genießen die Küstenaussichten, während Sie sich dem atemberaubenden Sand Beach nähern. Weiter entlang der zerklüfteten Küste besuchen Sie Sehenswürdigkeiten wie Thunder Hole und Otter Cliff, bevor die Tour mit einem atemberaubenden Aufstieg zum Gipfel des Cadillac Mountain endet, wo Sie mit einem Panoramablick auf den Park und den Atlantischen Ozean belohnt werden. Unsere heutige Reise wird etwa 32 Kilometer umfassen und zwischen eineinhalb bis zwei Stunden dauern. Die Dauer hängt davon ab, wie viel Zeit Sie mit dem Genießen der Ausblicke und dem Erkunden der Wanderwege verbringen möchten. Unsere Tour endet heute am Gipfel des Cadillac Mountain.

Genehmigungen sind für bestimmte Zeitfenster erforderlich und können im Voraus auf der Website des Acadia National Park gebucht werden.

Welcome to Albuquerque! The land where Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul came to life. I'm Rick, your trusty guide, here to lead you through some of the most legendary spots from the shows. Are you ready for a day filled with fun? Like you, I'm a huge fan of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. I mean, who can resist those gripping storylines, rich characters, award-winning performances, and of course, the stunning backdrop of Albuquerque? We will stop at 21 iconic locations. The tour will take about 3 hours, depending on traffic, weather, and the number of selfies you take. Along the way, I’ll sprinkle in some trivia and test your knowledge of the Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul universe. Points for correct answers, so if you have a car full of fans, you can find out who the ultimate "Breaking Baddie" is. There are a total of 47 points of interest or POI listed on the tour details screen. A POI is either a stop, quiz, trivia, or routing point. This tour is all about flexibility and fun. You can go at your own speed, pause the audio for a snack or a photo op, or even split the tour across days—just remember where you left off! To help you know where you are in the tour I will announce the poi number for each step. Keep in mind that audio clips from the show are included, so they might not be suitable for little ones. To make sure you have a blast, here are a few things to remember... The tour will give you turn-by-turn directions and will automatically move on when you pass invisible markers I’ve set up along the route. By the way, if you can see the markers or me in the backseat, then maybe somebody else should drive. ha ha ha! I cannot promise you the jokes will get better, but I can promise you a great tour! The narration lengths are based on speed limits, so stick to those and you won’t miss a thing. Let’s have a great time, but safety first! Stay aware of your surroundings, drive carefully, and obey the rules of the road. I also suggest no munching or sipping for the driver as well! All stops are on private property, so let’s be courteous to the homeowners and the neighborhood. No trespassing, blocking driveways, or double parking, please. If you want to snap a pic, park legally and stroll over to your chosen spot. When you are ready to move on just check your device to see where to go. If you missed some narration or you think you missed a stop, hit the arrow at the top of the screen to go back to the tour details page and scroll down to the poi to review the written script. Then scroll back to the top and select the "starting point" button, choose the next "POI" from where you are at now, and hit "Start Tour". Directions will take you to the next tour marker. Lastly, we aren't responsible for any accidents, property damage, or injuries you might encounter while enjoying this audio adventure. The tour kicks off in the JC Penney parking lot at Cottonwood Mall in Albuquerque. I’ll catch up with you when you reach the starting point!

Hello and welcome to this UCPlaces tour of northeast Israel. My name is Dave, and it will be my pleasure joining you as co-pilot, as we take a day trip through this beautiful part of the world. Our journey today will start in Safed, a hilltop town with cobblestone streets and mystical charm, renowned as one of Judaism’s Four Holy Cities and a center of Kabbalah.
