The National Gallery Audio Guide

🇬🇧 London · United Kingdom · 2 hours

Looking for a National Gallery audio guide? Venture does something no other guide can: it tells the story of The National Gallery in a voice you love — your own, or a parent's, a partner's, a friend's. Record about twenty seconds of speech, and the whole tour of The National Gallery plays back narrated in that voice. Here's what to see inside, how long to give it, and a taste of the tour itself.

What to see in The National Gallery

A taste of the tour

“Seven hundred years of European painting, free on Trafalgar Square. We’ll start with a mirror — the famous round one in the Arnolfini Portrait — because it’s the moment painting learned to show you the whole room, including the parts you weren’t meant to see.”

— the opening of the Venture National Gallery tour, narrated in whatever voice you choose.

Questions

Can I really hear the National Gallery tour in my own voice?
Yes. In the Venture app you record about twenty seconds of speech once, and the entire National Gallery audio guide is narrated back in your cloned voice. You can also record a loved one's voice and hear them guide you instead.
How long is the National Gallery audio guide?
Plan on 2 hours for The National Gallery itself. The Venture tour is written to walk you to the highlights that matter rather than every gallery, so you can do it at your own pace and re-listen for free.
Is there a free National Gallery audio guide?
You can browse the written tour and highlights for free. Recording a voice and hearing the full narrated National Gallery tour is part of Venture Audio Tours, a $9.99/month subscription with 120 minutes of narration and unlimited replays.
Do I need Wi-Fi inside The National Gallery?
Generate the tour before you go and it's cached on your phone, so replays work even where signal is poor.
