Why Audio Tours?

Audio tours are in an unusual liminal space. On one hand, they’re regarded as a basic education tool that no self-respecting art aficionado would use. On the other, they are part of the podcast renaissance, a DIY, app-based experience that breaks down barriers. 

We believe the truth lies somewhere in the middle. There will always be an audio tour audience that learns best through their ears and hungers for a guided experience. And there are ways to tastefully add new flavors to the mix, with diverse perspectives and voices. 

Great audio tours guide, but don’t lead. They bob when you expect them to weave. They tell stories that surprise, down a winding path to discovery.  

TECHNOLOGY

More and more museums are discarding their stock of audio tour wands and players and investing deeply in expensive apps. There are much more nimble, affordable solutions using the mobile web. We will happily work within your digital systems, or create for you a simple, easy-to-use player that can link from your own website, URL or QR code. 

We don’t let the technology get in the way of the visitor’s experience.
