Groups can often have difficulty hearing their tour guide due to the distance from the guide and the general ambient noise within the area. A client may have a hearing impairment making hearing the tour guide almost impossible.

Our Wireless Tour Guide System transmits the voice of the tour guide to a receiver and headphones which the visitors wear, allowing the visitor to hear the tourguide directly

Using a Wireless Tour Guide System can benefit the guide and group as a whole. The tour guide is able to talk at a normal level without straining their voice and the group is able to listen to the guide over ambient noise at a level which is comfortable for them. The system has several frequencies to allow for multiple tours to take place within the same area.

Various microphone and headphone combinations are available.

The Tour Guide System has two types of portable rugged chargers to which protect transmitter and receiver units during transportation.

Clients who use this system include the Honda BTCC Racing Team, Airbus, GKN Aerospace, Tyco Electronics and Trox (UK) Ltd, Saint-Gobain, Knowaste Ltd, National Trust and Bettys & Taylors of Harrogate and HSBC Data Centre.
