ListenUp 
Guiding Technology

Introducing a wireless audio system that transforms your group experience by reinventing the way we listen.

Guarantee that your entire tour group hears the guide or speaker clearly, no matter what.

Imagine being in a group environment with a guide without being able to hear what your local expert is saying. Maybe you are a few steps too far from the speaker or their voice is simply not loud enough to catch what is said. Maybe there is too much background noise to understand everything.

Don’t you want to ensure that this does not happen to your clients? With the latest ListenUp Guiding Technology you can guarantee that ALL your listeners get to hear the guide, no matter wether your clients stand far behind or if there is background noise.

The user friendly ListenUp solution enhances group guiding experiences and adds priceless value for your clients while they are traveling through Southern Africa.

This is how it works: The guide/speaker has a transmitter and listeners have a receiver that either fits over the ear (Model C) or hangs around the neck (Model V). The audio from the speaker is transmitted to the listeners ear with a transmission distance of up to 150 meters.
