What's New in TouringBee

5.0.11

September 30, 2026

Here's what we've prepared for you in this update: - New: pinch to zoom on tour photos, and the gallery at each stop flips through the pictures on its own. - Rate a tour once you finish it, so other travellers know what to expect. - Your playback speed now stays as you set it after a pause, a new track or a locked screen. - Steadier search: the keyboard no longer jumps and each tour shows up once. - Tour stops on the map are easier to tap, plus smaller fixes throughout.

Audio Stories

Listening to stories as you move between landmarks adds context that you might otherwise miss while sightseeing. It's a nice way to turn a normal walk around a city into a more meaningful experience.

Loire castles

We enjoyed the history lessons of the Loire castles. We did not hit as many as were discussed but listened to all 50 tracks as it opened our minds to all the history and the intertwined stories. Great job!

Fantastic

I downloaded the Tor on my phone at my hotel and took a lovely walk through Dublin with Sian my audio virtual tour guide. It was fantastic. I could go with my own pace. I could stop at shops. I could have lunch. I could sit at a park. I could take pictures. I had a wonderful day thank you TouringBee.
