App’ens of the North

Massive update of Edinburgh’s most comprehensive

tourist guide App

May 2011, Edinburgh: One of Edinburgh's leading tourist guide iPhone apps just got even better. Visitors to Scotland’s capital now have access to the most extensive, interactive tours direct from their iPhone, with the launch of a massive update to the Digi-Guide Edinburgh App.

A modern, good value alternative to traditional walking or bus tours, Digi-Guide Edinburgh puts the destination experience firmly in the hands of the tourist and their own interests. The comprehensive guide brings together a wealth of information and a number of unique features in one simple, user-friendly Application. Combining audio commentary and striking photography with GPS map-tracking and local knowledge, Digi-Guide Edinburgh offers the widest range of downloadable tours of the city currently available. Other features include a guide to rainy day activities and the pick of the best places to eat and drink.

The 12 detailed tours highlight key landmarks and points of interest along the way, from classic trails around Edinburgh’s most iconic sites, such as The Royal Mile and New Town, to more unusual options, including the architectural and gallery tours, or guides to the city’s best shops and its most haunted locations.

The audio commentary function - a first in UK App tour guides, is narrated by a local resident and keeps visitors informed as they explore the city, giving a personal perspective and inside knowledge of Edinburgh’s hidden gems, off the traditional tourist track.

By using GPS technology, Digi-Guide Edinburgh remains self-contained, so visitors never have to worry about expensive roaming costs, often associated with similar interactive mobile guides. The GPS positioning also enables visitors to be alerted to points of interest as they wander the city and ensures they never feel lost.

The new Digi-Guide Edinburgh App costs just £3.49, available from http://bit.ly/hMLALn

Edinburgh visitors without an iPhone need not feel left out, as an alternative, lightweight digital handheld guide can also be hired and delivered direct to hotels. Hire costs £15 per day or £25 for three days.

Currently, Digi-Guide Edinburgh is available in English and French, with German and Spanish versions being introduced shortly. A similar Digi-Guide Manchester and Digi-guide London App is also avaliable with the launch of a Stirling Digi-guide in the coming months.

Other Digi-Guide destinations currently available include Paris, Seville, Buenos Aires, Moscow, Barcelona, Florence, Berlin, Tahiti and Lille.

London Digi-guide - the final Digi-guide app of 2010!

Launch of Digi-guide London

Tourist Guide App

To celebrate the festive holidays, we have produced our very own tour guide to the City of London, with help from local Clarissa. The guide is available to download via the iTunes store and like all Digi-guide apps, it contains GPS locations, key city centre monuments, images and text commentaries, meaning you get closer to the real London. We are very excited to be heading up this new venture in tourism, especially as it begins in the run up year to the Olympic Games.

Having all this information pre-loaded on your iPhone allows tourists so much freedom and flexibility. At the touch of a button they can call up opening times and prices of London's top attractions or find their nearest restaurant for dinner and even find out everything they need to know about what London has to offer. It's as if you are being led around by a local.

This is a really exciting time for Digi-guide and it marks the release of our third UK app this year. We have highly ambitious plans to release our Stirling and Glasgow guides in the New Year as well as updates to our Edinburgh and Manchester guides.

The new Digi-Guide London App costs just .59p and is available from itunes.com or www.digi-guide.com
