City tour platform for hop-on hop-off buses and walking routes

Every hop-on hop-off bus carries tourists who stare out the window with no context about what they're passing. Immersia gives every passenger a live, multi-language guide on their own phone — commentary, historical photos, and GPS-triggered content that updates automatically as the bus moves through the city.

How city tours use Immersia

Live commentary from the guide — streamed to every seat

The guide speaks into their phone or tablet and every passenger hears it clearly on their own device — no bus PA system, no crackling speakers, no competing with traffic noise. Passengers use their own headphones or phone speakers.

GPS-triggered content that knows where you are

As the bus approaches a landmark, the correct historical photo, architectural detail, or archival image appears on every passenger's screen — automatically. No guide needs to cue it. Guests who hop off and back on later pick up exactly where the route is.

Every tourist hears it in their language

AI translation delivers the guide's live commentary — both voice and on-screen captions — in 65+ languages simultaneously. A Spanish tourist, a Japanese couple, and a German family all hear the same commentary in their native language. Their phones detect the language automatically.

QR codes at every stop — no app for tourists

A printed QR code at each bus stop, on the seatback, or on the boarding pass gives every passenger instant access. No app download, no registration, no language selection screens. One scan and they're in, receiving live content in their own language.

Why city tour operators switch to Immersia

Pre-recorded audio tracks that loop on a fixed schedule — out of sync with traffic, detours, and real-world timing
GPS-triggered content that fires when the bus actually arrives — and a live guide who can override, skip, or add commentary.
Tourists tune out because the commentary is in a language they barely understand
Every passenger gets the full experience in their own language — AI translation handles the rest.
Expensive multilingual guide recruitment for peak seasons
One guide, unlimited languages. Hire for personality and knowledge — Immersia handles translation.
"Which side of the bus should I sit on to see the landmarks?"
Every passenger sees the same visuals on their phone — it doesn't matter where they're sitting.
