How we ground every narration

Every stop traces back to primary archaeological and heritage records. Not AI-generated guesses. Here's how each narration gets built.

  1. 1

    Multi-source aggregation

    Each stop pulls from OpenStreetMap (the open mapping database used by Apple Maps and Tesla), Wikidata (the peer-reviewed structured-data project), the heritage authority below, and primary historical texts where they exist.

  2. 2

    Authority validation

    Cross-referenced against Instituto Andaluz del Patrimonio Histórico (IAPH) · Andalusian heritage institute.

  3. 3

    Fact-check pass

    Every sentence is checked against the verified sources above. Anything that can't be supported gets cut.

Highlights

Sites that define Cádiz

Cádiz Cathedral
1722-1838

A cathedral that took over a century to build, shifting from Baroque to Neoclassical as styles changed. The golden dome is visible from across the bay.

Roman Theatre
1st century BC

Seating for 20,000, discovered by accident in 1980. Much of it still lies beneath the living neighbourhood above.

Playa de la Caleta
3,000-year harbour

The small beach between two castles was the original Phoenician harbour where traders from Tyre founded Gadir.

Oratorio de San Felipe Neri
1688

The church where Spain's first liberal constitution was signed in 1812 while Napoleon's troops besieged the city.

Barrio del Pópulo
Medieval

The oldest neighbourhood, enclosed by three medieval gates. Every renovation uncovers Roman or Phoenician archaeology beneath.

Tavira Tower
18th century

The highest point in the old city, with a camera obscura projecting a live image of Cádiz onto a white dish.

Common Questions

How it works

It’s not just GPS — what are the ways to trigger a narration?

Three ways, all built in:

  • GPS-triggered (default): walk near a site, the narration starts automatically.
  • Tap any marker on the map: open the map view, tap any of the 15 markers to play that narration on demand — no walking required.
  • Queue controls: pause, skip, replay any narration; the queue auto-advances as you walk.

The map-tap option means you can stand anywhere — even at home before you travel — and play any narration. GPS just makes it hands-free while you’re actually walking the site.

Do I need cell service or data while I’m there?

No. Use the “Download for offline” button before you go, and the entire tour — audio, maps, narration text — works without any data connection. Tap-to-play and the map both work fully offline. GPS itself doesn’t need data; only the download does.

What if my phone’s GPS is unreliable?

Two backstops. First, the map shows every site — just tap the marker for the place in front of you. Second, you can manually queue any narration even when GPS is off. The platform never assumes GPS works; it’s the convenience layer, not the gate.

How long is the tour and how much time do I need?

The audio runs ~2 hours total, but you walk at your own pace. 15 narration points across the site. Most visitors take 2–4 hours; some spread it over multiple visits. Your access lasts 30 days from purchase, so revisit as often as you like.

Can I share with my partner or family?

One purchase covers one device session. Most couples share earbuds and use a single phone — the audio is paced for that. If you want everyone listening on their own device, each person needs their own purchase. We do not gate sharing aggressively; we trust visitors to do the right thing.

What if I never use the tour, or never make it to the site?

Full refund if you never trigger a single narration on-site. Partial refund based on how far you got. See the refund policy for specifics.
