Tour operators and travel agencies can reduce the costs of hiring tour guides through digital audio guiding apps

What is SmartGuide?

SmartGuide is an app for travel agencies that turns every traveler’s phone into a personal tour guide in their pocket. It is the fastest and cheapest way to add self-guided tours to your offerings for customers.

Guided tours can help tourists get the most out of any destination, but did you know that the majority of tourists don’t actually take tours?

Top reasons why tourists don’t take tours

Tourists prefer flexibility and freedom. They don’t want to have to show up at a fixed time and place and follow the tour. Also, if the tour is not in their native language or within their budget, they might not be able to take a tour. Tourists are also afraid of large crowds and using things like unhygienic audio guide systems because it can increase their risk of Covid-19.

Tourists are interested in learning more about your destination, but they prefer to explore independently.

The good news is that SmartGuide helps you better serve more tourists at your attraction and make tours a more attractive option.
