The Experience
For the Visitor
WLKTours® turns every visit into an exclusive local adventure — a custom-curated, self-guided journey through historic landmarks, hidden gems, local dining, and entertainment, guided by professional audio and video performers. Tours are developed hand-in-hand with your destination management team — the true experts on what makes your destination special.
For the Destination Manager
Whether you're a convention bureau or a destination management company, WLKTours® becomes a member benefit you can point to directly — a curated, member-connected guide to local knowledge, delivered to every visitor: where to eat, where to shop, and what to do. Every tour highlights your member businesses first, turning foot traffic into real, measurable value for the people who fund your mission.
The App
WLKTours® powered by SmartGuide® is a full-featured, self-guided walking tour app. For over 16 years, the SmartGuide® platform has had a proven track record of providing walking tour apps for tourist boards, convention bureaus, and destination management companies worldwide.
Every tour is built from custom-curated routes, brought to life with audio and video storytelling and precise point-of-interest mapping. Visitors also get a dedicated Member Directory to your organization's own businesses, downloaded in seconds from the Apple® and Google® app stores. Behind the scenes, your team gets on-the-ground marketing support, real-time analytics and reporting, and live tech support whenever it's needed — a complete program, not just an app.
Historic walks, brew pub crawls, architecture routes, and more — visitors choose what fits their trip.
A dedicated in-app directory to your organization's member businesses — shops, restaurants, services, and anything else you want visitors to discover, always one tap away.
Narrated stories paired with short video presentations bring each stop to life — more than a voice reading facts.
Every point of interest is plotted on the map — including landmarks, member businesses, local food & beverage, and theatre, sports, and entertainment.
Simple to load native apps available on the Apple® App Store and Google® Play Store.
Our team is available by text, phone, and email — ready to help visitors and staff whenever it's needed.
Supportive marketing materials to promote the program throughout your district — posters, QR code displays, and multimedia promotional content.
See which stops visitors actually visit and how long they stay — data your team can use to demonstrate real engagement to members and stakeholders.
Why WLKTours®
We build the tours, brand the experience, and provide simple app store downloads — then hand your team a reporting dashboard for clear, quantifiable results. Priced to fit inside your organization's marketing or member-services budget — a one-time setup fee covers route development and branding, followed by a modest annual license fee.
