We’ve been testing the History Sat Nav from Roadtour.co.uk and its certainly been a lot of fun driving around the country while learning about the history on our doorstep - and the local pubs as well.

As the UK’s first Sat Nav tour guide, the History Sat Nav provides audio visual commentary directly into your car as you approach interesting historical locations. the History Sat Nav covers 600 of the UK’s top heritage sites including historic homes, castles, ancient monuments, battlefields and gardens, as selected by Visit Britain. 

On average you hear about a new location every 10 minutes and to accompany this visitor information such as opening times, admission prices and photographs can be viewed on screen. It will also alert you to the location of 900 of the best pubs in England and Wales, each handpicked by Sawdays who have an established reputation for producing superb guidebooks.

Even in terrible traffic it’s been a welcome relief to discover something useful about the surroundings while stuck in the grip of gridlock.

Whether you want to sit back and let these factual nuggets come to you or you want to use it to plan a trip to some of the country’s finest historic buildings and places of historical interest then the History Sat Nav from www.roadtour.co.uk can help you on your way.
