Iconic Guides

I’ve recently had the pleasure to review one of the available MP3 audio tours from the ‘Iconic Guides‘ collection. Iconic Guides is a newly launched online business offering extremely high quality audios from historic destinations around the world. Dr Benedict Davies is a freelance writer and the founder of Iconic Guides and Della Phillips is the well-known and highly experienced voiceover artist used for the audios.

The ‘Tomb of Tutankhamun’ MP3 Audio Tour comprises 8 audios and each MP3 is relevant to a supplied PDF numbered plan of the tomb. The total tour time is approximately 27mins. The audio is made up of the following:

1. The discovery of the Tomb
2. An Introduction to the Tomb
3. The Antechamber
4. The Burial Chamber & the King’s Sarcophagus
5. The Wall Decoration of the Burial Chamber
6. The Treasury
7. Tutankhamum, Child of the Revolution
8. The Amduat

The audios provide an unprecedented level of detailed information into the cultural, artistic and architectural heritage of the Tomb of Tutankhamun. This is an excellent way to learn about the site without having to tag along with numerous tourists listening to a tour guide, or lug around that travel guide book!

A detailed ‘How-To‘ explains how you can purchase and download the guides.
