How WalknTours Self Guided Walking Tours Work
Exploring a city has never been easier. With WalknTours, your phone becomes your personal guide, letting you experience a self guided walking tour whenever you want and at your own pace.
Our GPS-enabled audio tours guide you through historic streets, famous landmarks, and hidden gems while sharing the stories that bring each destination to life. A self guided walking tour lets you explore independently without needing to join a group or follow a fixed schedule.
What is a self guided walking tour?
A self guided walking tour is a tour you take on your own using your smartphone instead of following a live tour guide. With a self guided walking tour, your phone provides directions, maps, and audio stories that guide you from stop to stop as you explore a city.
WalknTours makes taking a self guided walking tour easy by combining GPS navigation with engaging storytelling. As you walk along the route, the app automatically plays stories and directions when you reach each stop, just like having a local guide in your pocket.
