dtour is a literary tourism app that links remarkable writers and their stories to remarkable sites in Dunedin and the Otago region. It also showcases Otagos signature landscapes in the process. All of the literary sites are underpinned by anecdotes - the understory, so to speak, that generates and regenerates the literary ecosystem of Dunedin, New Zealand.

You can search dtour via the map, where you can select from "biographical" sites and "literary" sites. Or search via the list, which displays authors alphabetically. Push play to hear the text for each site read by iconic New Zealand voices.
