Mountain Goat has launched a free multilingual audio guide offering commentary in eight languages for its Lake District tours.
Tour operator Mountain Goat has launched a multilingual audio guide for its Lake District tours, officially released after a successful summer trial. The free app offers GPS-triggered commentary in eight languages: English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Chinese, and Portuguese.
The guide delivers stories and information about the landscapes, history and culture of the Lake District, Yorkshire, North Wales, and beyond. Passengers can download the app before their tour, bring their own headphones, and select their chosen language. The audio plays automatically using GPS, providing relevant information at key points along the route.
Robin Tyson, managing director of Mountain Goat, said the app 'blends modern technology with the warmth, local knowledge and storytelling that guests have enjoyed since the company began operating in 1972'. The guide is now available to all customers on Mountain Goat's scheduled tours. The company has more than 50 years of experience offering guided tours across the Lake District and Northern England.
