Towards interpretative city guiding. New approaches and services on examples of selected European cities

Armin Mikos von Rohrscheidt

Abstract


The paper is an analysis of various alternative forms of guiding introduced and used in increasing number in many European cities. As reasons for increasing diversity of guiding methods were identified the changes in the preferences and expectations of today's urban tourists and the competition between urban systems of providing information, leading to use of modern technologies in tourism communication and presentation. A juxtaposition showing the variety of guiding offers in selected cities of the European Union confirms the increasing prevalence of interpretative guiding. The analysis of the selected proposals made in the last part of the text shows their convergence with the recognized principles of heritage interpretation.
