MobiTour Mobile Phone Guide Service

Audio Guide System for Heritage Sites, Museums and Galleries by Mobile Phone

To enhance the visitors experience Art Galleries, Museums, Heritage Sites, Botanical Gardens and Zoos commonly offer an audio guide providing information on the exhibits and guiding the visitor around the venue in an efficient and enjoyable manner.

For the venue this involves the purchase, setup and maintenance of expensive audio equipment, plus the time and costs needed to regularly update the commentary - MobiTour provides a simple solution that is not only cost effective, offers features not available in standard audio guide systems, but can also generate revenue.

Over 92% of UK residents carry a mobile phone, a figure that rises amongst the socio-economic groups who visit art galleries and museums. MobiTour is a revolutionary system which uses the visitor’s mobile as an audio guide, either giving complete tours, or using the option to browse the exhibits on an ad hoc basis, or a combination of both.

MobiTour provides your establishment with an immediate revenue stream with no capital investment or staff tie-up and enables you to meet disability rights obligations.
