Create, publish, and update self guided tours in minutes with our CMS
Manage everything yourself with our Tour Builder CMS, made specifically for creating and promoting self-guided audio tours. Unlimited users with staff permissions, drag-and-drop content curation, tour access codes, content scheduling, and preset templates make content management easy with Tourient.
Create tours quickly with easy to use tools
Tell engaging stories with audio, text, images, and other types of content
Let go of storytelling limits
Tourient gives you expressive, storytelling control with more content types than any other tour builder, so you can tell engaging, immersive narratives.
Include text (with tooltips), polls and quizzes, images and galleries, hot spots, before and after comparisons, collection objects, embedded maps, podcasts and songs, and so much more.
Award-winning audio player, built-in
Upload your own audio in MP3 or M4A format, and add transcripts for accessibility. Choose whether the audio plays on demand, or starts playing automatically at each stop.
Or transform your text transcripts into audio, in your choice of voice and 65 languages. Generate text to speech in just a few clicks.
Create voice models of both local and historical voices to use within your self-guided tours.
Drag and drop editing
Arranging (and re-arranging) content is easy-peasy with drag and drop content blocks. Organizing tour stops and tours is just as easy.
Take advantage of Live Previews to see what your changes will look like, on any screen size, while you edit.
Arrange your home (page)
Your home page is where visitors start their app experience. Customize the layout and add links to your website.
Set the order of tours, and group tours by subject, theme, or anything else.
Build tours in many languages
Duplicate existing tours into new languages, or create entirely new narratives that target specific segments of your community.
Custom Branding for Each Tour
Set custom colors, fonts, and brand images for each tour, aligning your self-guided audio tours with your physical or online exhibit branding.
Let your logo and brand colors shine through key app touch-points like buttons, menus, and icons.
And if you want, take it to the next level by using your own domain, like tours.museum.com, instead of a custom Tourient subdomain.
Save time with templates
Quickly build an architectural tour with built-in fields for neighborhoods, architects, and styles like Italianate and art deco just by selecting a Template.
Templates are also available for art galleries and aviation tours. Need a custom template for something else? We’ll create one for you, for free.
Import and export tools
Tourient is designed to be a hassle-free experience. Our pricing is simple: a starter plan with one tour or unlimited tours. It's easy to sign up, and easy to cancel. You can import data via CSV, and export your tours, pages, and media folder.
Publish and share tours
Built-in marketing tools, and content scheduling make publishing easy. And access codes and hidden tours give you power over who can see what you create.
Marketing tools to promote tours without a design team.
Tourient's built-in tools help you create trackable deep-linked QR codes, simple social media posts, and professional-looking exhibit labels placards, in seconds.
At the end of a tour, create calls to action: building engagement and encouraging next steps that align with your organization's goals.
Schedule tours in advance to encourage repeat visits
Just like a social media post scheduling tool, Tourient lets you schedule tours in advance, so there's always fresh content to bring your visitors back and re-engage.
Our marketing tools can help you share your tours.
Control access to tours
Tour access codes give you control over who can view your tours. And our built-in access code generator makes creating codes as easy as two clicks. With access codes, you can:
Create premium tours or exclusive experiences for donors and members.
Sell tour access codes at your ticket counter, in your gift shop, or online using your existing POS system. No app store fees. No platform commissions. You keep 100% of every sale.
Email codes, print them on tickets, or display them on internal signage.
Hide content from search engines and public view
Are your mobile guides and audio tours for internal or private use? Hide them from search engines and prying eyes with the Hide Tour toggle.
Update tour content 24/7
Make changes that go live immediately. No app updates required.
Start now and finish later with drafts
Take your time with Tourient. There's no rush. You can get started, save your tours and stops as drafts, and come back any time. When you're ready, just toggle Publish, and you're good to go.
Multiple staff members can work on tours, together.
Use drafts to build tours incrementally, or run changes by departments that need to sign off on them. Staff permissions control who has the power to edit and delete your content.
Add more content at any time
Tourient's gives you the freedom to tell as many stories as you want with unlimited tours, stops, users, languages, and visitors.
Add new tours or stops. Rearrange existing tours, or split them into multiple offerings.
