Create a Tour Adventure on the eATLAS App
The Association of Philadelphia Tour Guides (APT) has arranged a Zoom webinar with Chicago-based Kelly Kniewel of eATLAS – Adventures To Go on March 31 at 7 pm. The eATLAS platform helps guides build and publish custom app-guided “Adventures” that visitors can take on their own or guides can use as a media enhancement to in-person tours. The experiences are easily shareable, so guides can use them for marketing and self-promotion or publish them on platforms like Viator. To preview the eAtlas app before the meeting, download it for free.
In this practical session, Kelly will walk members through what is needed to create an Adventure that’s ready to publish and share on eATLAS. She’ll also explore how an Adventure can function as a “digital appendix” to a live tour—featuring historic photos, videos, and extra stories guests can access on their phones, as used by guides like Ronnie Frey for his tours with Doorways of Chicago. (Ronnie did a ‘How To Use Social Media for Marketing‘ workshop for APT members in November 2025.)
Guides will learn:
- What information and assets to have ready before starting (route stops, story beats, images/video, objectives)
- How Adventures are structured on eATLAS and what makes them engaging for guests
- Ways to price and position self-guided Adventures as an additional revenue stream
- How to use their Adventure link/code for self-promotion and audience growth
- How to use an Adventure to enrich an in-person tour with “then-and-now” visuals and bonus content to take away
