Abstract
For Maharashtrians, the forts in Maharashtra are a source of history, however due to a lack of guides at each fort, Tourism of forts is dwindling as a means of passing on information or history to the public. To address this problem, an android-based virtual tourist guide has been proposed. The proposed system includes four interactive modes to lead tourists to the forts. The results of a pilot study suggest that the proposed guide system has improved tourist experiences significantly.
