Description:

This app organizes the vast and varied library of Rick Steves’ audio content into geographic-specific playlists so that travelers can enjoy ready access to the information that relates specifically to their travel plans. Many tracks provide general cultural and sightseeing information gleaned from his public radio program, Travel with Rick Steves. Other tracks are self-guided tours to great sights and historic walks. While we travel there’s lots of down time, and this application can both entertain and teach. Rick Steves Audio Europe will hopefully make your European travels more meaningful and more fun.

Features:

• The app downloads and stores audio files on your device. No Wi-Fi or cellphone connection is required to listen. (You will need a connection if you choose to add audio tracks later.)
• Handy maps (PDF) that complement the self-guided audio tours can be viewed on your device.
• The audio content originates from Rick Steves guidebooks and the Travel with Rick Steves public radio program. Self-guided tours are excerpted from Rick Steves country and city guidebooks.
• Rick Steves Audio Europe is a work in progress. New audio tracks will be added and existing tracks updated as necessary. Be sure to enable Notifications for this app to get the latest updates.

The Best Tours Ever!

Thank you, Rick Steves for your amazing Florence and Rome tours. You brought to life these cities and sites in a way that was animated, easy to understand, and personable(we felt like you we beside us). The pace and commentary were perfect for a every tour we took! Grazia!

Mostly good for Rome trip, with exceptions

We used this in Rome November 2016 and it was very helpful. The best was were the audio tours of the Vatican Musums and the Sistine Chapel, and the Colosseum. Well timed and loads of information. The attempts at humorous banter were the only drawback, painful but tolerable. Fortunately they make up a small part of the tours. Pompeii was the only problem tour because shortly into it the streets that the audio tour proceeded to were closed, and there was no way to get around to proceed to the tour - all streets to the area the audio tour went to were closed. If I had know that I would have gotten the audio tour at entry. Another problem tour was St. Peter's Basilica. A good portion of the tour includes walking up to the alter, and exploring the naves to right and left of the alter. But the area of the alter was blocked off, and so were the naves. Perhaps that was temporary but I have no idea. Regardless, thanks, Rick, for all the helpful information. Perhaps put in a disclaimer - for Pompeii especially - that the site may close parts of the tour from public access.

He brings it to life

Rick Steve's guided tours bring ancient ruins to life. He has a great voice, provides interesting details and made my kids excited to spend a whole hour at the Roman Forum.

Great content, but frequently crashed

I love the content of this app :: the podcasts and the interactive walking features. But TWICE this app has crashed when I was using it and all of the downloaded content was lost ... this was especially frustrating when it happened in the Uffizi on my recent trip to Florence. Fortunately I had looked over the info in advance, but it was frustrating to loose this content whilst trying to use it in the museum! I would be more than willing to pay for this app if it would mean that it was more reliable!

Fantastic app!

Used this in Rome, Pompeii and Paris. Super helpful and comprehensive way to tour sites and museums without paying for a separate guide. Only suggestion is to bring on more walkthroughs of museums, etc!
Security Framework
Secure the data your app manages. Protect information and control access to your app.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
MobileCoreServices
Use uniform type identifier (UTI) information to create and manipulate data that can be exchanged between your app and other apps and services using MobileCoreServices.

Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
Quartz Core Framework
Allow users to browse, edit, and save images, using slideshows and Core Image filters.The Quartz Composer API supports processing and rendering graphical data and allows developers to create custom patches for the Quartz Composer developer tool. ImageKit provides user interface support for browsing, editing, and saving images, showing slideshows, and browsing and previewing Core Image filters. PDFKit is a technology that allows applications to display and manipulate PDF documents.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
