Audio Tour Index helps you pick a self-guided audio walk before you arrive. We research what's available in each city and recommend the tours we'd actually use — not every app on the market.

Why we built this

We love self-guided audio tours. There's nothing like wandering a new city at your own pace with a great story in your ear — no fixed schedule, no following an umbrella, just you and the place.

But the market is a mess. Dozens of apps and providers, wildly different formats and quality, and no easy way to tell what's actually worth your money and your morning. We kept asking the same questions before every trip — which app, which tour, is it any good? — so we built the answer: one place that compares what's out there and tells you, plainly, which walk to take.

What we stand for

• Independent — we compare across providers and only recommend tours we would use ourselves.
• Curated — a handful of clear picks per city, not an endless directory.
• Verified — every tour is checked for price, language and starting point, with the date we last looked.

Each destination page leads with clear picks (best overall, best free, best for families, and so on), then fuller reviews below for anyone who wants detail. We link straight to the tours we recommend. Curious how we put the guides together? Read how we research.
