Touristas

Travel apps either show you the same touristy checklist or give you a map with no context. Locals also end up going to the same places. We wanted one app that helps you discover smarter and spend less; whether you live here or you’re visiting.

Touristas mixes context (audio) + commerce (perks) in one flow. Discover a hidden café, hear the backstory of the street you’re on, and save while you’re at it. It’s built with a curated, non-touristy mindset so you find places locals actually love.

Unique Features

• AI Map Search: tap category filters (Restaurants / Café / Bars / Shops) to see curated spots around you, many with member perks (~10–15%).
• Landmarks on demand: hit “Show me stuff” to reveal nearby sights, then Generate Route for an instant audio walk.
• Nóra, the City Charmer: short, human audio stories that blend history + local culture (offline-friendly, pause/resume anytime).

• Early partner network: 50+ restaurants & cafés already on board.
