Paris (FR), March 2012 - Time travel on your iPhone or iPod touch with the murderers, gravediggers, and celebrity photographers of Time Traveler Tours. These tours combine the traditional power of storytelling with the latest in mobile technology to bring history and culture to life.
For your next trip to Paris, the first Time Traveler Tours StoryApp iTinerary is now fully bilingual. Entitled "Beware Madame la Guillotine, A Revolutionary Tour of Paris", this iTinerary is an interactive voyage to the French Revolution told through the eyes of 24-year-old murderess Charlotte Corday in the moments before she is to meet her fate.
As Charlotte spins her harrowing yarn, explaining why she stabbed radical propagandist Jean-Paul Marat, she takes you on a daylong adventure spanning Paris' right and left banks. Stand-alone maps, directions, and even a restaurant recommendation (with discount) aid your quest. Orientation games, scavenger hunts, and brainteasers make discovering history effortless and fun.
Listen to the narration in one language while reading along in another; disable the text altogether and let Charlotte's story unfold.
In December 2011, the app earned the following distinctions: Top 10 2011 App by School Library Journal and Top 10 Tried & True Classroom Apps by Teachers With Apps.
Time Traveler Tours interactive StoryApp iTineraries are primarily devised for the ever-increasing numbers of young people travelling with their school groups and families. They offer a fun complement to related high-school and home-school curricula as well.
