Brighton Audio Tour: A Journey Through Time and Culture

If you have been looking for a way to see Brighton from a different perspective, there is a self-guided audio tour running throughout May 2026 that might fit into a free afternoon. The experience, titled Brighton Audio Tour: A Journey Through Time and Culture, is designed as a 2.5 km walking route that covers various landmarks and historical points across the city. It is not a group tour with a set schedule, which means you can walk at your own pace, pausing or resuming the narration whenever you like.

The tour relies on GPS technology to trigger the audio segments automatically as you reach specific locations. To participate, you need to download the AllTours app, which is available for both iOS and Android devices. Once you have the app and the tour downloaded, your phone acts as your guide. The starting point for the route is Marlborough House, located at 54 Old Steine, Brighton, BN1 1NH. From there, the route takes you through the city, providing professional narration about the history and the character of the area.

Regarding the schedule, the tour is available on specific dates in May 2026, including the 13th, 14th, 15th, 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th, and 21st. The cost for the tour is £3.00. Because the content is downloadable, you have the option to access it offline, which is useful if you prefer not to rely on mobile data while walking. It is a straightforward setup for anyone interested in a bit of local history without the constraints of a guided group tour.
