Where To Begin
You can get the most out of your adventure by beginning your journey at the designated starting point, but Wayfarer was also designed for flexibility. If you’re already exploring Hollywood and want to start the tour somewhere else, simply tap on the closest Waypoint, and you can pick up the tour from there.
Remember that the tour goes in one direction, so you won’t be able to circle back to the part of the tour you missed, though. But don’t worry! If you don’t have time on this go-round, you can always come back for the rest of the tour. Once you pay, you own it forever, and you can play it from any device connected to your Apple ID with GPS.
Tour Time
One common question people ask is: how long will the tour take? Well, it’s up to you! When you begin the tour, Wayfarer will automatically calculate an estimated tour time based on the current traffic conditions, but only you know how quickly you want to go. Los Angeles often has heavy traffic, so be prepared for a long drive. Plenty of Wayfarers enjoy stopping at specific points along the way to take breathtaking photos or enjoy some fun in the sun.
Your tour has a pause function; you can pick things back up again when you’re ready to move on. Wayfarer tailors the experience to what you want to do, so be sure to take a pitstop if you need one!
