Detour

Detour is an app that helps you find lesser-known, off the beaten track, touristic activities in several cities around the world. Currently, the app covers: San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Austin, London, Paris, Rome, Berlin, Barcelona and Marrakesh.

The only thing you have to do in order to start taking advantage of this app is to pick one the ‘detours’ available. Right away, you’ll be able to see how to reach that exact location. Once you’re there, you can listen to the narration about that place; just like you would an audio guide in a museum.

Detour is an ideal app for travelers because you’ll get to discover interesting and relatively unknown spots as well as listen to an expert talk about the place. You can basically turn any city into your own museum.
