From the creator
Touring a village, we pause on a bridge to watch the schoolkids pass by — greeting each other with a cheery "merhaba" (hello). You'll notice we're wearing headphones. With these "Whisper System" earpieces in place, our guide can give us a running commentary while we straggle and explore, without having to all stay in a big group. All over Europe, the Whisper System is becoming the standard way tour guides do their guiding. Whisper Systems are required in the great museums and preferred on the streets. While most groups just rent them at the museums that require them, our tour program purchased this system, and the tour I'm on is the first to issue a set to each tour member to be used whenever the guide likes. I am enthusiastic about this new technology. It's easy on the guide's voice, our groups make less of a commotion where we're touring, and individuals enjoy both the freedom to roam and the necessary information.
