πŸ“ Geolocated tours

The guide leads the group. The story arrives in everyone's language.

BabelTalkie's geolocated tours are made for sightseeing buses, horse carriages and tourist trains touring a town β€” and they work on foot too. A guide always leads the group, but no longer has to repeat everything language by language. You set up the points of interest once, and as soon as the group stops near a spot, the prepared commentary plays automatically, read aloud in each passenger's chosen language. No app to install, no rental headsets β€” it opens in the browser via QR or link.

How it works

πŸ—ΊοΈ

You set up the points of interest.

On a map (visible only to you, during setup) you place each stop along the route and link a commentary to it.

🚌

The guide leads the group.

By bus, carriage, tourist train or on foot, following the itinerary.

πŸ“

You stop, the story starts.

As soon as the group pauses near a point, the prepared commentary plays automatically and is read aloud in each visitor's language β€” up to 30 different languages, all at once.

Two ways to create content

πŸŽ™οΈ

Dictate it.

Tell the story of the stop in your own words: BabelTalkie transcribes it and prepares the text.

✍️

Type it.

Paste or type the text for each point.

Either way, the commentary is then read aloud in all the requested languages β€” no recording to make for each language.

Visitor questions (two-way translation)

If you turn on two-way translation, the tour is no longer one-way: a visitor asks a question β€” by voice or in writing β€” and BabelTalkie translates it into the guide's language. The guide answers in their own language and the reply comes back to whoever asked, in theirs. This way even those who don't speak the guide's language can truly interact, with no awkwardness.

Why it works

πŸŽ™οΈ

The guide doesn't have to split in two.

They lead the group without having to repeat everything in English, German, French… the system handles it, in 30 languages at once.

🌍

One stop, every language.

Write (or dictate) it once: every visitor chooses their language at the start.

πŸ“

The right content at the right spot.

The story starts when you stop at the point, not one single stream to scroll through by hand.

πŸ‘₯

Scales to large groups.

Every tourist uses their own phone: the setup grows with the group without adding hardware.

πŸ“±

Zero hardware, zero app.

It opens in the browser via QR or link, on the phone the visitor already has.

πŸ”„

Update whenever you want.

Change a text or add a stop and it goes live for all languages at once.

Perfect for

City tours by sightseeing bus Β· carriages and tourist trains Β· walking tours in historic centers Β· itineraries among sites and monuments Β· excursions with multiple stops Β· tour operators with international clientele.
