VoiceMap is a free smartphone app that uses your phone’s GPS to create a map of a route to walk, with a voice narrating as you do so, reports IOL.
There are several routes available in Cape Town, from the Company’s Garden and Green Point Park, to the design district and street art in the East City, with new ones being added all the time.
Some are free to download, some carry a small charge, and the app is backed up by a comprehensive website where users can, among other things, read the transcripts of the walks and listen to the audio.
Each route gives the distance to be covered and the estimated time it will take for brisk walking.
The commentary can be paused and resumed at any point as users explore the different areas and attractions at leisure.
The app can be found on Android and iPhone app stores.
