Frequently asked questions about audio tours of Melbourne
Is there a self-guided audio tour of Melbourne?
Yes. Avsha generates a personalized, self-guided audio tour of Melbourne on the fly — press play and it narrates a story about wherever you're standing, from Federation Square, Royal Exhibition Building, Hosier Lane to a quiet corner of Fitzroy. No fixed route, no guide, and it works on any street, not just the famous ones.
What's the best free audio tour app for Melbourne?
Avsha is free to start (3 stories, no signup) and built for Melbourne: it tailors each story to your interests, travel mode and language (60+ supported), and never repeats. Unlike a fixed catalog of a few recorded stops, it can tell the story of any spot in the city.
Can I use it offline while walking around Melbourne?
Yes — with Trip Packs you download stories over WiFi before you go and listen anywhere in Melbourne, even in airplane mode or with no signal.
Do I need to book a tour or follow a set path in Melbourne?
No. Avsha isn't a scheduled walking tour — just open it wherever you are in Melbourne and press play. Wander Fitzroy, double back, or stand in front of the Federation Square and it adapts to you in real time.
How much does an audio tour of Melbourne cost?
It's free to try. After your first few stories you can top up with an affordable credit pack or go Pro for unlimited exploring — far less than a guided Melbourne walking tour, and yours to use anywhere in the world.
