Description

Thousands of self-guided walking tours and travel articles in 1,500+ cities around the world are included in this handy app. No need to hop on a tour bus or join a tour group; now you can explore all the city attractions on your own, at your own pace, and at a cost that is only a fraction of what you would normally pay for a guided tour. The app is designed to be used offline so No Data Plan or Internet is Needed, and No Roaming either. The app is free to download. Afterwards, you can evaluate the walking tours - see the attractions and use the fully functional offline maps included in each of the city walk guides, all for free. A small payment – fraction of what you would normally pay for a guided group tour or tour bus tickets – is needed for accessing the walk route maps and activating turn-by-turn navigation functions.

Terms of Use: https://www.gpsmycity.com/terms.html Privacy Policy: https://www.gpsmycity.com/privacy-policy.html Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. This app gives you the option to turn off the GPS tracking in the background to prolong the battery life. It is also suggested that you bring with you an external battery. Note: This app relies on GPS for its navigation functions. For best experience, it is recommended to use the app on iPhone and iPad cellular+WiFi models. It is not recommended to use the app on iPad WiFi-only models due to lack of built-in GPS support in these models.

  • Awesome & getting better

    Travel is even more fun when you can come to a new place and have confidence you’ll be able to hit the ground running. For my wife and me, a locale blossoms the more we walk it, see it, & explore it. A tour guide enhances this even further. This app allows us to do guided tours of a locale at our convenience & pace. We are so happy with the large number of destinations included in this app’s collection; we haven’t had to search for or LEARN a new app when we traveled to new places! It’s so great they keep adding new sites and new features. We’ve enjoyed all of the prepared walks AND the ability to construct our own walks. AND we’ve also benefited from the additional travel guides many of the destinations have, many with niche or specialty interests (food, culture, history, day trips, etc.).
  • a great app with huge potential

    This is my favorite app to use while traveling. The information is top notch – and I find myself using the app even in cities I’ve visited before. The walks are well-planned and the articles offer info beyond the cookie-cutter fare. Agreed with others that some technical improvements can be made to make the app more intuitive and user-friendly, but these are minor –and I imagine they will be worked out over time.

    We were in Europe for 11 weeks and did all of the planning ourselves. We used the GPS my city app nearly every day I like that I can create a custom walk and then follow the map to each location. The information. And tips on each site is interesting and helpful. I even had a Bern, Switzerland native thank me for helping him see a unesco site he knew nothing about before I asked about it. We were able to use the app in Switzerland, Italy, Greece and 6 Greek Islands, France, Spain and Portugal. Sylvia
  • Perfect vacation app

    Have used this app to customize walks in several cities. Love that the attractions I want to see are organized in a logical walking order. Extra benefit is each attraction will have a great write up on it’s history and what you need to see.
  • Crazy directions

    By Hcivoyram
    I’m on Elm St headed to the attraction which is 2 blocks straight away on Elm St. Directions have been telling me for last .5 mi to “turn left at crosswalk” immediately followed by instruction to “walk south on Elm.” First off, there are no crosswalks at several points where I’m told to turn (and why am I turning when attraction is straight ahead) and instead of “walk south” it would be more helpful to tell me to turn right or left, since I’m not Magellan and really don’t want to take the time to assess the sun’s position and determine which way is south. This is not the first city the app has sent me one way only to immediately direct me back to my original route. I’m inputting attractions this app suggests into my Apple Maps and following the much clearer directions.
  • No background audio

    Robotic audio during gps tours stops when the phone is locked. This means I have to hold the phone up and open while I’m trying to look around at what’s being described. It’d be much better if I could put the phone down and listen to the tour while I walk.
  • Walking in Malta

    By FL Tux Lady
    We recently went on a Mediterranean cruise. We used this app in Malta. Very easy to use and it was wonderful to wander on our own. Really we weren’t alone, the app kept track of where we were and it was easy to follow along. The articles are interesting and add to the experience.
  • Love this app

  • A great App for even for seasoned travelers!

    By RoRoSjo
    GPSmyCity is such a wonderful App even for the seasoned traveler. It features a description of various sites within its Walking Tours that is also available as voice. If you are someone who likes to do your own walking tour, especially at your own pace, this App is what you need. It is more than worth its subscription.
