Inside the app

What a walk looks like

Real screens from the app, captured on a walk through Rome.

  1. A walk page in the app: its route on a map of Rome, with numbered photographs of each stop

    The whole walk on one page

    The route, every stop in order, the distance and the time, before you set off.

  2. The live map in the app, with a dotted line leading to the next stop

    Follow the line

    A live map leads you to each stop, starting with the way to the first one from wherever you are.

  3. A stop in the app, Trajan’s Column, with its narration playing

    Hear the story there

    The guide starts talking as you arrive, and the player stays with you while you look around.

  4. The list of places in Rome, with four of them ticked

    Choose your own places

    Tick what you want to see in a city, most interesting first or closest first.

  5. A walk built from four chosen places, in walking order, with its distance and time

    Walk them in the best order

    The app turns your picks into the shortest walk. Drag a stop to change it.

How a walk works

The guide starts talking when you arrive.

The pages here tell you where the walks go. The app takes you round them.

  1. Pick a walk

    Every stop is a real place, already in walking order.

  2. Pocket your phone

    Follow the line on the live map, or download the walk before you lose signal.

  3. Listen as you arrive

    On a narrated walk the story starts on its own at each stop, so your eyes stay on the place.

Continue in the app

Free to install · Every city’s featured walk is free, start to finish.

  • The route, followed

    A live map with the turns called out, and a way back whenever you wander off it.

  • In four languages

    English, French, Spanish and Arabic — the words and the voice, not just the labels.

  • Or build your own

    Pick the places you actually want and the app works out the order to walk them in.

  • The unglamorous things

    Toilets, pharmacies, cash points and water, without leaving the walk.

  • No signal needed

    Download a walk before you go and it works under a souk roof or on a plane.

  • Picks up where you left off

    Stop for lunch, come back tomorrow, and the walk is exactly where you left it.
