But how did Helsinki rise to the top, and what can other cities (and businesses) learn from its success?

Let’s dive in!

How Churches Can Offer an Interactive Information Package to Their Visitors

Churches are more than places of worship; they are cultural landmarks that attract visitors eager to learn about their rich history and architecture. However, traditional methods like brochures fall short of engaging modern visitors.

These solutions make it easy to share important information, engage visitors of all ages, and offer an accessible way to enrich their visit.

The key is offering a modern, interactive experience that informs, inspires, and engages. We’ll explore how technology, creativity, and planning can turn your destination into a must-visit, and how Reveel can help create an unforgettable experience.

The Transition from Paper Maps to Interactive Digital Solutions

As tourism evolves, destinations are shifting from traditional paper maps to interactive digital solutions. Paper maps, limited by space, language, and outdated content, are being replaced by digital guides that offer enhanced engagement, real-time updates, and sustainability. Reveel is leading this transformation, offering eco-friendly, cost-effective solutions. 

In this blog, we’ll explore why this transition is happening and how digital tools are revolutionizing visitor experiences.

Miten Reveel auttaa museon kävijäkokemusten modernisoinnissa

Useimmat ovat varmasti sitä mieltä, että museoon tutustuminen paperiopasteen avulla saattaa tuntua vanhanaikaiselta. Kaikilla kun on puhelin taskussa, miksei niitä voisi hyödyntää? No, tämän takia Reveel on täällä. Tässä artikkelissa kerromme muutamsta näkökulmasta, miten Reveel-opaskirjan hyödyntäminen museossa parantaa kävijäkokemusta.

Why platforms are superior to building your own digital solutions for visitor experiences

It’s no secret that every destination wants to take part in the digital era. The problem is - it is extremely expensive to build digital solutions… and it takes time. A lot of time. Not to mention the maintenance costs. This is the reason we still see old paper maps being used at destinations - the alternative is simply too expensive. That is, until now. We believe that every destination - no matter how small - should be able to provide modern visitor experience without spending a fortune. In this article, we discuss the benefits of using a platform over developing your own digital solutions.

Why is the visitors’ phone the best device for destinations?

Everyone carries a smartphone in their pocket nowadays - this is not news. Yet, destinations still use analog solutions - such as old paper maps - for displaying information. This is a gap that we aim to close. Through Reveel, destinations such as churches, museums, attractions, cities and more, can now digitalize their offering and bring it straight to the visitor’s phone with one scan. No need for paper maps & brochures anymore!
