Edinburgh Audioguide: interactive GPS route

Our Edinburgh audioguide uses your smartphone’s geolocation technology to show your exact position on the Edinburgh map. As you reach each marked point of interest, you can play the audio content and manually unlock interactive mini challenges. You set the pace: stop for a break, grab a coffee, and continue your tour whenever you like.

Our experience is designed for all types of travellers. It’s ideal for families looking for an engaging way to introduce history to children and teenagers through mini challenges and clue-based activities, for couples who want to explore at their own pace without relying on groups, and for solo travellers seeking a smart, expert companion. As a self-guided tour, it adapts perfectly to any pace and age.

To fully enjoy the interactive experience — including GPS maps, audio content, and mini challenges — each traveller needs to purchase their own guide on their smartphone. Purchases are individual and linked to a single user account.

While it’s technically possible to share headphones, we recommend that each person has their own audioguide to participate individually in the challenges, receive their own free eSIM code, and navigate the route independently from their own device.

Unlike traditional audioguides, DareMapp offers engaging explanations, fascinating historical facts, local legends, and fun mini challenges throughout each route. Beyond learning about the main landmarks in Edinburgh, you’ll also discover hidden gems and local traditions in a more interactive and enjoyable way.

Our itineraries are not generated by Artificial Intelligence or generic algorithms. Each route is carefully designed by official guides, historians, and local experts who live in the city. This allows us to offer not only accurate historical information, but also the kind of insights, stories, and hidden spots that only a local would know.

Yes. We are currently working on an offline mode, but for now an internet connection is required. That’s why, with your Edinburgh audioguide, we include a free 2GB eSIM* so you can stay connected and avoid roaming charges.
