Being in a new city is intimidating when you don’t know much about it. You’re in a strange new world, lost, and you just want somewhere to start. There are guided tours, but they can be costly and inflexible in terms of time and the points of interests. You could look up locations on a map, but in a busy place like NYC, it’s sometimes hard to find what you’re actually looking for whether you’re hungry or want some history.

Quavi makes exploring a new city easier and catered to the individual’s experience. Our app would allow a user to be their own interactive tour guide at their own leisure with no cost to them. Users have the option to select and download preset tour routes based on the categories that interest them (i.e. History, Arts & Culture, Religion, Food, etc). This eliminates the need to meticulously plan out their sightseeing course from scouring through multiple resources.
