Orpheo is excited to announce our latest collaboration with Boston Duck Tours! We have developed a native app featuring content in 8 languages (German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Cantonese/Chinese) to enhance the experience for non-English speaking visitors. This innovative app includes GPS-triggered audio commentary, allowing guests to follow along on their smartphones as they explore the vibrant city of Boston from the unique perspective of amphibious vehicles.
Boston Duck Tours offers a one-of-a-kind way to view the city’s historic landmarks and attractions. With more than 600,000 passengers each season, and a fleet of 28 vehicles capable of carrying over 950 passengers at a time, it is the perfect activity for any group outing, whether it be a convention, corporate event, senior group, or school excursion.
The new Orpheo app significantly enhances the visitor experience by providing real-time audio commentary in multiple languages. While the tour guide speaks live in English, non-English speaking visitors can access equivalent audio commentary on their phones, ensuring everyone can enjoy and understand the tour’s rich insights. This modern approach not only provides multilingual support but also delivers real-time insights, making the exploration of Boston’s history and culture more engaging and accessible. With this partnership, Orpheo and Boston Duck Tours are committed to offering an unparalleled experience that celebrates the charm and history of Boston while catering to the diverse needs of its global audience.
