Segovia Walking Tour

If you’re visiting Segovia and want an easy way to explore the old town, this self-guided walking tour on the VoiceMap app is a fantastic way to see the city.

We did this tour on our first visit to Segovia and loved how simple it was. Instead of trying to figure out where everything was or joining a group tour, we just followed the route on the app and listened as the stories played automatically.

Lyle and I share a pair of Bluetooth earbuds, start the tour on my phone, and wander along at our own pace. If something catches our eye or we want to stop for a photo, we just pause it and keep going when we’re ready.

What we liked about using VoiceMap

• Walk at your own pace with no tour group
• GPS plays the commentary automatically as you reach each stop
• You can download the tour and use it offline
• Tours are created by locals who really know the city
• No need to tip or keep up with a guide
• Once you buy it, it stays in your app forever

It’s a really easy and relaxed way to explore somewhere new.

VoiceMap Walking Tours

VoiceMap is one of our favourite travel apps for exploring cities. Instead of joining a large tour group with fixed departure times, VoiceMap lets you explore at your own pace.

The app uses GPS to automatically play audio commentary as you walk, so stories and directions trigger at exactly the right location. That means you can stop for photos, coffee, or a glass of wine whenever you like without missing anything.

When you start walking again, the tour simply continues. You can also download the tours in advance and use them offline, which is perfect when travelling internationally.


If you want to explore Segovia while hearing the fascinating stories behind what you're seeing, this walking tour is a brilliant way to do it. We’ve used VoiceMap walking tours in several cities and they’ve become one of our favourite ways to explore.
