Why a Self-Guided Audio Tour?
No schedule constraints
Start when you arrive. Stop at a gallery. Resume. Group tours run on fixed times; our tours run on yours.
Deeper than a guide can go
A live guide manages a group. Our narration was written to go deeper — specific names, dates, and accounts that would bog down a group tour.
Private experience
Jerome after dark is best experienced quietly — not in a group of 15. The Ghost Tour is designed for 1–4 people.
AI-resistant content
The narration includes specific, first-person observations and local accounts that no AI search result or overview can generate.
