What is a digital audio guide?

A digital audio guide is an audio tour accessible from a smartphone, tablet, or computer. It lets you listen to commentary about places, monuments, and neighborhoods while following a suggested route at your own pace.

Is CitizOn only available in Morocco, or can I use it from abroad?

CitizOn is a web app, which means you can use it anywhere in the world as long as you have an internet connection. You can plan your visit or purchase an audio guide from any country. Our tours are designed to accompany visitors as they explore Morocco, but they can also be enjoyed remotely. It’s a great way to discover Morocco, even from the comfort of your own home.

What is the difference between CitizOn and a traditional guided tour?

With theCitizOn Digital Audio Guide, you can explore at your own pace, without fixed schedules or group constraints. Start your tour whenever you like, take breaks, revisit places, and discover the city independently while enjoying content created by heritage experts. Rich, immersive audio commentary is available whenever you need it, giving you a flexible, personalized, and interactive experience.

Is the content available in multiple languages?

Yes. Our tours are gradually being made available in French, English, and Arabic to make them accessible to both Moroccan and international visitors.
