Whenever I visit a new city I always think what a great idea it would be to go on one of the city tours, but if you are into your money saving like me then you won’t want to waste your money paying for someone to give you a guided tour.

The solution is to download a free podcast onto your Mp3 player that you can listen to while you walk round the city.

Having done an internet search on the subject here are some FREE city guide torist podcasts I have found.
