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.

Fix the app

I downloaded this app since I wanted to take an audio tour of Coyoacán in Mexico City.
Right off the bat, I encountered some difficulty. I made an account, but logging in wouldn’t do anything. It would just bring me back to the sign-on main page and say nothing else. After 4 attempts, things got worse. All of a sudden, it logged me in 4 times at once, giving me an onslaught of repeating pop-ups that it took me a solid 3 minutes to trudge my way through. After I finally accepted the terms and conditions for the fourth time, the tour I wanted to listen to was “under revision” and didn’t work, telling me to check back later. Maybe I was just unlucky, but honestly I’m too frustrated to continue using this app after all that. It has a lot of potential, but is severely held back by flawed programming.

Porto dismally doesn’t work.

Downloaded to use in Porto, GPS doesn’t locate, map doesn’t update, and there’s no audio.

Doesn’t run automatically

I downloaded Mt. St. Helens guide and was looking forward for a great guided trip. But the app didn’t automatically run no matter what I’ve done. The whole point of such guide app it’s to find the user’s location and to run the audio automatically. Instead we had to start the audio manually, hopefully it is the right time. Obviously we had no idea if what was playing in the app is what we see. Very disappointing experience. Paid money for nothing.
