Audio city guide with 13 sights
The audio city guide, which includes a relief book for people with visual impairments in large print and Braille, features descriptions of 13 attractions narrated by Gundula Gause on CD-ROM and as an MP3 file.
The audio city guide and relief book are designed to work together, but can also be used independently without any problems. All materials are part of a project by the Mainz and Rheinhessen Accessible Model Region and can be borrowed or purchased at the Tourist Service Center for a deposit.
The materials were conceived and produced as part of the “ReisenohneGrenzen” (Travel Without Borders) pilot project.
