About
GIDIO turns an ordinary city walk into a quest: you move from stop to stop with a guide who explains why this place was worth coming to.
How it works
You name a city and tell us how many days you have, who you are travelling with and the pace you enjoy. The route is then assembled for you: stops fall into a sensible order instead of a random list of sights.
Every stop comes with a short story — what happened here, what to look at, what most people walk past. Listen or read, as you prefer. Curious about something? Ask in the chat and get an answer while you walk.
Why a quest, not a list
Lists of sights are everywhere, but they are awkward to walk: a list does not know how much time you have, how tired you are or what you have already seen. A quest is a route with order and pace, where the next stop opens once you reach the previous one.
That is what makes the walk one continuous story rather than a checklist.
What is inside
A route for you
Days, company, pace and interests shape which stops make the route and in what order.
A living story
Each stop tells a story rather than reciting an encyclopedia. Voice narration is available.
Questions on the go
The chat answers about the place you are standing next to: what it is, why it matters, where to head next.
Wherever suits you
Telegram, MAX, the mini app and the mobile app — progress is shared, continue from any of them.
A record of your walks
Completed stops and cities stay in your history and on your personal map.
Cities with verified places
We keep our own database of places: addresses, coordinates and facts are checked, not guessed.
Straight talk about AI
AI works almost everywhere here: it picks stops for your pace and interests, writes the stories and answers questions in the chat. That is what it is good at — speaking plainly about things we have already verified.
What we do not let it do is invent places. Routes are built from our own database, and a city can only be chosen from it. If a day runs short on verified stops, AI fills the gap — and such stops are marked right in the route as unverified.
So you always know what to trust and what is worth double-checking on site.
Data and sources
Places, addresses and facts come from our own database, which we build and verify ourselves. To recognise city names (typos, abbreviations, translations) we partly rely on the open GeoNames geographical database.
Populated-place data is partly based on GeoNames, licensed under CC BY 4.0. geonames.org
