ColourfulTrips bilingual tour guide app
Recorded commentary for tourism day trips in English, Cantonese and Mandarin.
Opportunity
Colourful Trips is an Australian tour company that caters to a wide range of international tourists. There was a need to expand the tourism offering and customer service to Chinese speaking visitors whilst touring Australia with Colourful Trips.
Solution
The Colourful Trips app is recorded commentary for our day trips which allows non-native speakers of English to fully appreciate the experience and learn more about the beautiful destinations and activities our passengers engage in while on tour. Each place we visit or pass through has its own chapter with a heading image and information ranging from history, cultural significance and stories. Our chapter on the lyrebird has a link that enables you to hear the song, sounds and mimicry that this amazing bird makes.
Our first version is for Mandarin speakers travelling on our Blue Mountains Day Trip. Or even if you’re not travelling with us, but would like to know why you should travel to the Blue Mountains with Colourful Trips, then listening to this professionally recorded commentary will convince you that experiencing this breathtaking wilderness and the majesty of the Blue Mountains National Park is worth it!
Support for the app
Development of the Colourful Tours was partly funded by Destination NSW.
