Description

Experience the magic of GPS audio walks, cycles, drives and even boat rides with VoiceMap tours in over 350 destinations worldwide. They’re like podcasts that move with you, to tell stories about what you’re seeing right now. VoiceMap’s tours are produced by insightful local storytellers, including journalists, filmmakers, novelists, podcasters, and tour guides. Sir Ian McKellen has even created a tour. It's around London's West End, where he’s performed for over 50 years. Features: • Explore at your own pace. Start and stop tours whenever you like, then use the resume option to pick up exactly where you left off. • With GPS autoplay, you can focus on your surroundings, not the screen. Tap on Start, and let VoiceMap guide you. • VoiceMap works offline. After you download a tour, the audio will be available offline along with an offline map. • If you do go off in the wrong direction, VoiceMap plays an audio alert, and you can follow the map on your screen to the next location. • Listen to tours as many times as you like both in the destination and in virtual tour mode at home. • With over 1,200 free and paid tours, VoiceMap offers huge variety Reviews and Testimonials: “High-quality self-guided walking tours...Narrated by local experts, they provide insight into corners of the city sometimes overlooked by regular guided tours.” Lonely Planet “We may be biased, but could there be anything more helpful than having a journalist in your pocket when touring a new city? How about a historian, a novelist or just a really passionate local? VoiceMap culls city-specific stories from them all and fits them neatly into walking tours.” New York Times “My wife and I really enjoyed exploring Bruges at our own pace with this audio tour, and there were some memorable stories that the narrator shared. Also, the app worked great in relation to the location-based services. We easily followed the map and the audio was triggered in the appropriate spots. In comparison to the packs of people wandering the city with tour guides, this was a much better fit for us.” Viator review, Rick A “Brilliant. Can go at your own pace, good information and took us to places we would never have found ourselves.” Tripadvisor review, Ravin D “It was enjoyable to be under no time pressure to freely roam the city of Pisa as we so pleased. Wandering from attraction to attraction. The app is clever, concise and easy to use! Would do again - especially with another person or solo traveler.” GetYourGuide review, Grace L “Great quality information - interesting and entertaining. The time flew by. And no waffle! This is far better than any other guided tour we found - they are much more expensive and far less informative. And you can do this tour any time, any day, at your own pace, and even do it twice!” Tripadvisor review, Carcassonne 's Medieval Walls: A Self-Guided Tour “Great value for money, interesting and very clear and easy to follow! I learnt lots about London I didn't already know and I have lived here over 30 years.” London’s Alternative History Tour, Carmella V. “I loved the tour, bought all of the New Orleans ones you had and have already recommended it to two people. I will without a doubt continue to use the app.” Faith & Courage: Metairie Cemetery Stories, Jeremy L “Loved this! Real eye opener for me as a new resident of Singapore who thought this only an island of foodies and engineers. LOL! Please produce more soon!” Artoholic Singapore, Craig DeLarge ** Just so you know, GPS runs in the background while you're on a tour. This decreases battery life and it's best to start a tour with your device fully charged.

    I am a big Context Travel fan. But this tour was one of the most unique things I have done with context yet. It took me to areas of Tokyo. I didn’t know alongside some of the most famous places., Excitement, intensity, and com altogether I thoroughly recommend this to anyone who has an afternoon or morning in Tokyo. Thank you very much.

    My first trip to London. So I knew nothing. But I’m guessing the info shared may be enjoyable for anyone. I adored this experience. I’m a solo traveler and having Ian McKellen guide me with his humor etc. was fun. I laughed out loud a few times. I will be recommending to my friends. Great walk through London Theater district. And free on VoiceMap. (He has a stop at a pub along the way.)

    Exactly what I was looking for. I frequent Geneva but never had the chance to explore it or learn much about its history. This was a great introduction with a great narrator. The app is well designed—it allows you to put down the phone, stop whenever you would like, and continue the tour seamlessly. Great idea!
  • GPS pacing is excellent

    So nice to walk and never have to look at your phone. It knows where you are and talks when it’s supposed to when you arrive at each spot. Terrific!

    The tour of Old San Juan, Puerto Rico was most delightful and informative. The concept of having students of a with-grade class guide us around the city was very creative and was expertly produced. I will recommend this tour to others visiting San Juan. Thank you for a fantastic and joyful tour.

    Traveling through Europe, we are loving this. Great tours and directions. We had looked for similar audio tours a couple years back while traveling in New Orleans and had no luck. This is EXACTLY what we’d wanted then and briefly considered designing our own app to fill the void. You’ve done the job well!
  • Fantastic tour!

    This was a great tour. John, the Australian guide, was interesting, informative, and funny. The pace was good with just the right amount of history and commentary. I took this tour at my own pace over three days, stopping at all the places that I wanted to see inside. It was a perfect tour of Valencia. I will definitely look for his other tours when I go to different cities. Two thumbs up!
