Maps V.S Audio Guides - 21st Century Travelling

The travel industry is rapidly being changed. The reason? Mobile and social trends are allowing traveller’s to experience their surroundings like never before. Traditional travelling included a map, a few travel books and a thirst for adventure. But in the traditional manner, so much can be lost from the experience.

A map can lead travellers to exactly where they want to go but it can’t capture the traveller’s imagination. When traveller’s download mobile audio guides, they are lead to precise locations and given a detailed and entertaining glimpse into where they are and what they are seeing. Another benefit of audio guides is that it can provide insights into places that are hidden and unexplored but are not the conventional interests that would be highlighted on a map.

Audio guides are about the story they tell, the information they share and the entertainment value they provide. For the same reason film makes invest millions to tell their version of a story to captivate audiences in cinemas all over the world, audio guides are designed to share fun and enriching stories to tourists and travellers. In all honesty, can a map alone provide this?

To download mobile audio guides is to take a step into 21st century travelling and open up a whole new world within your travels. In an age where the cellphone is king, leisure travellers are estimated to spend nearly $102 billion online this year and 40% more in the next five years, mobiles being a critical player in this growth. It’s time to throw away the maps and let audio guides take the lead in the new way of travelling.
