VoiceMap for Museums and Attractions
Give your visitors a richer experience – without the hardware
Visitors unlock the museum's stories using their own phones
Traditional audio guides mean upfront investment, ongoing maintenance, queues at the desk and devices that need cleaning, charging and replacing. VoiceMap works on visitors' own phones instead, so there's no hardware to manage and no desk to staff. Simply display a QR code with a short set of instructions and your visitors can do the rest.
Whether you're running a museum, a castle, a gallery or a garden, VoiceMap gives you a flexible way to deepen how visitors experience the place.
Tours work both indoors and outdoors. Indoors, visitors trigger the audio by tapping on an image once they reach a specific stop, guiding them through your collection or exhibition at their own pace. Step outside into the grounds or gardens, and GPS takes over automatically, so the commentary keeps pace with them. Tours work offline once downloaded, so visitors don't need WiFi or a data connection once they're on the tour.
Expert voices, not just descriptions
The most memorable museum experiences don't just tell you what you're looking at. They tell you why it matters, who made it, and what was at stake. VoiceMap tours are made by people who know their subject deeply: a Renaissance art expert guiding visitors through Rome's Borghese Gallery, a classical archaeologist guiding visitors through the Colosseum's history.
The Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg uses VoiceMap to guide visitors through its permanent exhibition, with a tour that has earned over 240 five-star reviews on one of the most difficult and important stories a museum can tell.
Added value or ticket revenue, your call
You choose the commercial model. Offer the tour as a complimentary part of the visitor experience, or charge for it as a standalone product.
