  • Gypsy app - was in two minds on this but now tempted to purchase this. Assume GPS via mobile itself? Will I need a Canadian data plan or just via the iPhone hardware itself.

From their website:
"No Signal, No Problem!

Download and tour offline. Our tours use free GPS signal from satellites to trigger commentary, based on your location.

No cell service (data) or WiFi signal is needed to tour."

Speaking of which, if you use Google Maps, I suggest downloading the areas you'll be driving through so you can use Google Maps for navigation.  That way you won't have to rely on cellular data.
