If you've ever struggled with a city map, been too far back to hear the guide or been stuck behind the tallest tourist the group, you need a
Podtour.
Livingetc loves these
downloadable audio tours that let you explore independently, with all the benefits of a
personal tour guide showing you the sights. Thoroughly researched and painstakingly planned, they focus on explaining the
history, art and architecture of each destination while still retaining a sense of humour.
Covering destinations in
Italy (Florence, Venice, Rome, Pisa), France (Paris, Rouen, Chartres, Laon), Belgium (Ghent, Bruges) and the UK (a selection of English cathedrals and cities), Podtours are priced between £2 and £5 depending on the length of the tour – cheap compared to the cost of hiring a personal guide, and much more detailed than any guidebook.
