VoiceMap is an audio tour application that provides immersive self-guided walking tours of destinations around the world. Unlike traditional tour apps that rely solely on text and images, VoiceMap uses high-quality audio, music, and ambient sounds to engage users and bring locations to life.
The VoiceMap library includes over 1,500 tours in more than 50 countries. Tours are available for major metropolises like New York, Paris, and Tokyo as well city gems and offbeat destinations. The app offers walks tailored specifically for each place, diving into histories, architecture, culture, and lesser-known sights. Locals are often hired to narrate tours in order to provide insider perspectives.
Users can download tours for offline use so there's no need for constant WiFi or mobile data access.
