An exemplary geospatial navigation system defines geography of a domain of navigational proficiency of a user of a mobile navigation device. The geospatial navigation system receives, from the user, user input representative of a request to provide navigational guidance from a first location located within the geography of the domain of navigational proficiency of the user, to a second location located outside the geography of the domain of navigational proficiency of the user. In response, the geospatial navigation system provides the requested navigational guidance from the first to the second location to the user. Specifically, from the first location to a boundary point of the domain of navigational proficiency, the navigational guidance includes voice guidance provided at a diminished guidance level. Between the boundary point of the domain of navigational proficiency and the second location, the navigational guidance includes voice guidance provided at a comprehensive guidance level.
