Curious about where GreatGuide has been lately? Air, land and water: GreatGuide isn't just an in-car tour guide! No, he's been a rather busy chap lately, helping out all sorts of different people.

Here are a few of our favourites...

GreatGuide jumps on the bus in Cape Town...

Recently, GreatGuide jumped on the bus with City Sightseeing Cape Town and helped the tour company with a nifty little M.L.M.R. audio guide system. If you are wondering what this means, M.L.M.R. stands for Multi-Language Multi-Route system. It allows those red tourist buses around Cape Town to play informative sound bytes through headphones in 10 different languages. From German, French and English to Zulu and Spanish, now international and domestic tourists can get the "Did-you-know" fix along two different tour routes around Cape Town.

GreatGuide’s M.L.M.R. system not only provides interesting facts and information for adults, there is also an entertainment option for kids with Salty the Seagull, Blatjan the Baboon and Modiswa the Mongoose, who joke and laugh their way around the sights of Cape Town.

GreatGuide was commissioned by City Sightseeing Cape Town to develop a fully integrated end-to-end solution and, being such a great guide, that is exactly what they
got – a complete solution including content, translations, recordings, hardware and software. Pretty cutting-edge stuff from the guy in green…

The most techno-amazing thing about M.L.M.R., though, is that the recorded sound bytes “fire” or trigger automatically according to GPS coordinates. This means that tour companies don’t need to have a cheesy tour guide, with a cowboy hat, who likes to speak English well or a distorted loudspeaker recording.

GreatGuide’s M.L.M.R. system has a wide range of applications from topless tour buses and game vehicles to large couch tours and guided outings – where there are people looking for a fun and easy-to-use tour experience, GreatGuide is sure to be near.

GreatGuide flies high in the Okavango...

GreatGuide is officially airborne with Sefofane Air Charters. Another one of GreatGuide's tourist friends, Sefofane provides specialised air charters to and from the Okavango Delta with a diverse range of low flying, light, aircraft that will sweep you across this amazing wetland without getting your toes wet.

With GreatGuide onboard, Sefofane has been able to provide international and domestic tourists with an in-flight audio system that points out areas of interest and explains the formation and history of the delta...

The Okavango Delta was formed millions of years ago when tectonic plate activity interrupted the flow of the Okavango River creating a unique system of waterways. The delta supports a large range of rare animals including crocodile, red lechwe, sitatunga, elephant, wild dogs, buffalo, wattled crane as well as other more common mammals and birds.

GreatGuide has helped give Sefofane’s lofty African experience a voice with their In-Shuttle System providing an interesting, fun and informative audio guide.

GreatGuide’s In-Shuttle head-set system is perfect for light aircraft tours and helicopter flips.
 

GreatGuide goes wild in the Kruger Park!

GreatGuide recently went on safari with Safarisdirect and discovered all there was to know about the wild. From Joburg to the Kruger National Park, GreatGuide has been keeping tourists entertained with fascinating facts and local stories. What else would you expect from a great guide?

If you have a tourist shuttle, minibus or transfer service, why not get GreatGuide to come along and make it an experience to remember.

GreatGuide Ahoy!

GreatGuide has even been taking to the water! The Waterfront Boat Company has paired up with GreatGuide to provide a guided open water tour. The Waterfront Boat Company offers private charters and scheduled hop-on hop-off cruises in and around the Cape Town Waterfront. GreatGuide's onboard PA system has kept all the ships mates and crew on the deck with an informative and fun tour on the high seas.
