Mobile guide launches for London

Do Me Mobile Limited is launching Do Me ... London, an informative tourist guide that’s available on your phone whenever and wherever you want. Visitors and Londoners on-the-go can now access multimedia guides to more than 80 of the capital’s top attractions, simply by sending a single text message.

Going somewhere in London? Want to impress your friends? Looking for something new? Whether it’s your first time in the capital or your five-hundredth, Do Me ... London puts the best of the city at your fingertips. 

Ben Whitehead, a professional tour guide and actor, and his five alter-egos narrate the engaging and sometimes horrifying stories you won’t find anywhere else. Users can also access interactive maps, photos and other detailed information from London Bridge to the London Dungeon. It’s all on your phone and it’s all tailored by you, for you, whenever you want.   

To get started, all you have to do is text the word London to 83040.  You’ll receive a free reply with a link to the Do Me ... London website, which can be accessed through your phone’s browser.  The site is quick and easy to use, and there’s no charge for browsing.  Use the map or the search function to find the attraction you want, then simply click on the relevant link.  You’ll receive an automated phone call telling you everything you never knew you needed to know.  Billing is by reverse SMS, at £1.00 or £1.50 per call.  Two attractions are completely free.

‘I want to take people to the real London, through its dark alleyways and hidden secrets,’ said Whitehead.  `Now whenever you go somewhere in London, you always have me as your guide, as long as you have your phone.’
