Ps. Going on holiday soon?
Use the search field on the homescreen to check your upcoming destination(s). Missing guides near your holiday spot? Be sure to use the in-app Guide Suggest form to see if we can help you with that.

Tip: If somehow some questions arise, or you have any remarks, be sure to use the FAQ section, which you can find in the Settings-menu. Here you can also Suggest Guides.

Please note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

The Tales & Tours app tries to keep your GPS-usage as low as possible. But in order to provide the best guiding service, in GPS guided (map based) views, your GPS will continously be used, also when you leave the app running in the background. In this way the app can notify you when you reach a new point in the active guide. Need to save battery? Use the GPS toggle left-bottom on the map in the guides.
