The world of guiding is evolving, and so are the expectations of todayโs tech-savvy travellers. As visitor needs shift towards seamless, multilingual, and interactive experiences, guides remain at the heart of this transformation. At Vox Group, we are committed to ensuring that technology supports, rather than replaces, the guideโs roleโenhancing communication, improving group management, and deepening engagement.
This year, weโre introducing three breakthrough innovations designed to empower guides and enrich visitor experiences:
- Next-Generation TGS Devices โ More Choice, More Flexibility
Our newly expanded Tour Guide System (TGS) portfolio now includes three cutting-edge devicesโVox VDR, VDR Micro, and the brand-new VDR Mini. Designed specifically for group guiding, these lightweight, interference-free digital radios deliver crystal-clear audio. Whether leading a museum tour, a city walk, or a large conference group, guides and operator partners can select the best system to match their needs.
- Vox AI-Powered Live Translation Radios โ Breaking Language Barriers
Guides often need to accommodate multilingual groups, but language guides arenโt always available, and bilingual tours can dilute the experience. Our AI-powered live translation radios solve this challengeโallowing guides to speak naturally while AI delivers real-time translations in over 50 languages. No smartphones, no downloadsโjust effortless, accurate translation through our Vox Microguide radios.
- Vox Connect AI โ Smartphone-Based Multilingual Touring
For guides looking to enhance guest engagement and accommodate last-minute tours or smaller groups, Vox Connect AI is a game-changer. No hardware requiredโguests simply scan a QR code to receive real-time translated commentary and interactive multimedia content on their smartphonesโwithout downloading an app. This solution enables guides to message participants, share images and schedules, and dynamically adapt their tours.
Guiding the Future, Together
Each of these innovations is designed to empower professional guides, providing tools that enhance their expertise rather than replace it. By embracing smart solutions, guides can better engage modern travellers, maintain strong group cohesion, and focus on their core strengthsโbringing destinations to life with storytelling, passion, and knowledge.
We invite all WFTGA members to explore these advancements and see how technology can enhance their guiding experiences.
