Tourguide Systems

Wireless tourguide systems bring clear and intelligible communication to large factory tours, open air tours, multilanguage interpretations, audio descriptions and other guided tours in many challenging environments.

Apple Sound tour guide systems offer maximum flexibility with minimum fuss. The system does away with sore throats for tour guides, confusion and frustration for tour groups.

How they work

Tourguide systems are easily operated without any previous knowledge of the equipment. Once the receivers are distributed to the tour group, the transmitter is switched on and the tour can begin. The lightweight wireless receivers are comfortable to wear, even for long periods.

After use the receivers are simply returned to their storage case for charging.

The microphone can be hand held type - convenient to pass to members of the tour group for occassional questions, or a head-worn type which operates through a belt-worn transmitter – leaving the guide with their hands free to point out interesting features.

The receivers can be either ‘stethoset’ style worn hanging from the ears, or a belt-pack type using headphones to relay the sound. Belt pack receivers can also be used in conjunction with ‘ear defender’ headphones for very noisy environments and with a ‘neck loop’ for hearing aid users (with T-position).

Hire or buy?

Apple Sound offer complete solutions, helping you decide which is the best system to meet your needs. We are not tied to a particular manufacturer so can offer impartial, balanced advice to help you choose the right system.

Buying or renting the system depends on how often you are likely to use it. Many customers start by renting a system on two or three occasions before deciding that purchasing a system outright would be more convenient and financially worthwhile. Similarly, customers who have bought a system to cater for their regular events subsequently hire in further systems for larger events such as open days.
