Temple of Antoninus
🇮🇹 Italy
❤️ Romance

History's Most Extra Love Letter

Forget the Taj Mahal. Emperor Antoninus Pius built this massive temple in 141 CE to deify his wife Faustina. It wasn't built to honor gods, but as ancient Rome's most dramatic "I love you," carved in marble.

Royal Pavilion
🇬🇧 UK
👑 Royal & Weird

Brighton's Most Ridiculous Palace

King George IV created this preposterous Indo-Saracenic fantasy palace that looks like someone dropped a Mughal masterpiece into a Sussex seaside town. It's a monument to royal indulgence and bad taste done right.

Carmo Ruins

Elevador da Bica, Lisbon's idea of public transportation

Welcome to the Elevador da Bica, Lisbon's idea of public transportation and accidental tourist attraction rolled into one bright yellow package. This charming funicular has been hauling tired legs up the impossibly steep Rua da Bica de Duarte Belo since 1892, and still manages to be both entirely practical and completely adorable at the same time.

🍊 Architecture

The Courtyard of Orange Trees

Abd al-Rahman I had a problem: he needed to build the second-largest mosque in the world, fast, but his recycled Roman columns were embarrassingly short. What do you do when your stolen masonry doesn't match your architectural ambitions? You innovate. Enter architect Sidi ben Ayub, whose double-tiered arch solution created the most photographed interior in Spain purely by accident.

Zurich Shopping
🇨🇭 Switzerland
💎 Luxury

Where Price Tags Don't Exist

Bahnhofstrasse wasn't always a luxury paradise; it started as a ditch for city waste. Now, it's 1.4km of retail therapy so exclusive that shops don't bother displaying prices.

Caesar Temple
🇮🇹 Italy
🏛️ Legend

Where a Mortal Became a God

This isn't just ruins; it's where Caesar's funeral sparked a riot. Citizens built his funeral pyre right here using their own clothes, turning a political assassination into the birth of an Empire.

The Experience

Audio guides used to be boring.
We fixed that.

🥱 The Old Way

"In 1436, construction began on the dome using a double-shell structure..."

🔥 The Sofia Way

"This guy had a massive ego. He built this dome just to prove his rivals wrong, without even using scaffolding. It was basically a magic trick made of brick."

Art & Street

From the Louvre to graffiti alleys.

Why is that one tower different from the others?

Great eye! 👀 That's the "Unfinished Chapel." The king died before it was completed in 1435, and the architect took the blueprints to another city. It’s been open to the sky for 600 years!

Wow. Also, I'm hungry. Any good tacos nearby?

User
Sofia

If you want authentic tacos, go to "Taqueria El Rey". It's 200m to your left, down the alley with the blue door. 🌮

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before your trip.

Does this work offline?

Yes! We know data roaming is expensive. You can download your itinerary and audio guides over Wi-Fi at your hotel. Once you're out exploring, Sofia works via GPS without using a single megabyte of your mobile data.

What languages are available?

Sofia is a polyglot! We support over 30 languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, and Portuguese. Our AI translates content instantly with high-quality, natural-sounding neural voiceovers, so you can listen comfortably in your native tongue.

Can I ask the guide questions?

Absolutely. Unlike old-school audio guides that just talk at you, Sofia talks with you. If you see a strange statue, want to know who lived in that castle, or just need to find the nearest bathroom, open the chat and ask. She answers instantly.

How do the custom itineraries work?

No two travelers are alike. You tell Sofia what you love (e.g., "Architecture and spicy food") and how much time you have (e.g., "2 hours"). Our AI instantly builds a walking route optimized just for you, skipping the stuff you'd find boring.

Is the app free?

Yes, the app is free to download and includes free introductory tours. We offer premium deep-dive content for specific museums or extended city tours which can be purchased in-app for the price of a coffee.

Will it drain my battery?

We've optimized our GPS engine to be extremely battery-efficient. Plus, because Sofia is audio-first, you can listen with your screen turned off while walking, which saves significant power compared to constantly looking at a map.
