The Golden Gate Bridge glowing orange at golden hour, seen from above in City Tour Simulator

City Tour Simulator

Explore real cities

Fly between landmarks on narrated tours, walk the streets, and meet friends in the same city. Photorealistic 3D, with a new city every month.

A guide who flies you there

Pick a city and the camera glides from landmark to landmark while the narrator tells each story: when the Golden Gate opened, why it is orange, what happened on Alcatraz.

A guided tour stop at the Golden Gate Bridge, with the narration panel, tour progress and minimap controls on screen
Short and long tours
A tour of 15 highlights when you have an evening, and one of 30 when you want the whole city.
Pause any time
Step out, walk around the neighbourhood, then pick the tour back up where you left it.
Always oriented
A minimap shows where you are and where the tour goes next. Subtitles are built in.

Walk the streets

Drop to ground level and wander. Shop fronts, trees and kerbs are all there.

Climb onto rooftops

Ladders and ledges take you up for the view the street never gives you.
