What is a storytour and how does it work?
A StoryTour is a location-based, self-guided audio walking tour. Each tour is based on a famous story from history or fiction set in your specific location, such as Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde in London or The Little Mermaid in Copenhagen.
Walk the same streets as the characters, as you listen to their stories. Every time you reach a new location an exciting interaction, such as a puzzle game, video, or image interaction, will pop up on your screen.
All you need to go on a StoryTour is a smartphone and headphones. Since it is self-guided, you can start, pause and end it whenever it suits you. And once you have purchased a tour, it is yours to keep and use as many times as you wish!
