Experience the magic of GPS audio walks, cycles, drives and even boat rides with VoiceMap self-guided tours in almost 500 destinations worldwide.
VoiceMap tours are like podcasts that move with you, to tell stories about what you’re seeing right now. They’re produced by insightful local storytellers, including journalists, filmmakers, novelists, podcasters, and tour guides. Sir Ian McKellen has even created a tour.
Why use VoiceMap?
• Explore at your own pace instead of being herded along in a group. Start and stop tours whenever you like, to grab a drink or take in the view, then tap Resume to pick up exactly where you left off.
• Focus on your surroundings, not the screen. With automatic GPS playback, you can just tap on Start and let VoiceMap guide you.
• Avoid expensive roaming fees or fiddly connection issues. After you download a tour, VoiceMap works offline and includes an offline map.
• Enjoy tours as many times as you like, both in your destination and with your feet up, at home. Virtual Playback turns every tour into a podcast or audio book.
• Extend your attention span with indoor tours that help you make the most of your time at a growing range of museums and art galleries around the world.
• With over 1,500 free and paid tours in 70 plus countries, VoiceMap offers huge variety. There are over 100 tours in London alone!
Press:
“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

Version 14.1.2
SpendingUpdatesI have this app for a while. About 4 or 5 years ago I used it in Mexico City, and it did great. Yesterday, May 24, 2025, I was in Heidelberg, Germany, where 2 tours for old city were offered. I picked one of them, paid and downloaded. I was given direction to starting point, walked there, and that's it! Button "Start the tour" stayed grey, and nothing I could do to start the tour: rebooted the phone, update the app - nothing! Paid and downloaded 2nd tour-same! Very upset! I want my money back!

Hate itLove itUsed this for a few tours in Italy after a last-minute booking. Most were good - introductions to a city, interesting historical notes, some recommendations - some better than others (Pompeii was an excellent one). Great concept, good production value on those I've used - a great alternative for those who don't enjoy the crowds of guided tours.

I've used this app in several cities and really enjoy it. While you obviously don't to get to ask your guide questions, as you would in a live tour, you do the tour at your pace, you can stop at museums, shops, bars or restaurants when you want and pick up the tour when you leave. overall, it's much more enjoyable than a live tour!
