This app organizes the vast and varied library of Rick Steves’ audio content into geographic-specific playlists so that travelers can enjoy ready access to the information that relates specifically to their travel plans. Many tracks provide general cultural and sightseeing information gleaned from his public radio program, Travel with Rick Steves. Other tracks are self-guided tours to great sights and historic walks. While we travel there’s lots of down time, and this application can both entertain and teach. Rick Steves Audio Europe will hopefully make your European travels more meaningful and more fun.
Features:
• The app downloads and stores audio files on your device. No Wi-Fi or cellphone connection is required to listen. (You will need a connection if you choose to add audio tracks later.)
• Handy maps (PDF) that complement the self-guided audio tours can be viewed on your device.
• The audio content originates from Rick Steves guidebooks and the Travel with Rick Steves public radio program. Self-guided tours are excerpted from Rick Steves country and city guidebooks.
• Rick Steves Audio Europe is a work in progress. New audio tracks will be added and existing tracks updated as necessary. Be sure to enable Notifications for this app to get the latest updates.

Great and actually free!
We used it for our visit of the Vatican museums and the Sistine Chapel, after being disappointed by audio guides in other museums. It’s well made, informative, and the app is very simple to use. Each itinerary comes with a simple map. It’s also useful that each element can be downloaded, since cell reception can be bad inside these old buildings.
App providentielle pour le tourisme (en anglais)
Si vous parlez anglais, cette app propose des audioguides de grande qualité et gratuits pour de nombreux sites en Europe. Je l'ai utilisée à plusieurs reprise en Italie et Grèce, il y avait toujours un guide pour les visites phares, jamais déçu. Et en plus très simple d'utilisation, avec un chapitrage et des cartes super pratiques.
Amazing!
I used it for my trip to Athens, it was amazing!! Really loved the Ancient Agora guide. I was curious so I also listened to audios for other countries, it’s a great way to learn!
Very good
We did both the Ufizzi gallery in Florence and the walking tour of Sienna (including the cathedral) and they are really good (however, experts would find them too superficial). Only a walk in Pisa is missing and this app would have been perfect for our trip in Tuscany
