Which brand of wireless tour guide system is suitable for cruise ship Tours

On the surface of Taihu Lake in Suzhou, one cruise ship after another carries tourists from home and abroad to Sanshan Island and Yuantouzhu. Among the clear waters of Longhu Mountain in Jiangxi Province, cruise ships meandered through the Danxia landform, and tourists all hoped to hear the stories behind every landscape. Cruise ship explanations are the core service of water scenic spots, directly affecting whether tourists have a good time and the reputation of the scenic spots. However, for a long time, many water scenic spots were troubled by the problem of boat tours. It was not until the wireless tour guide system of Yingmi came that these problems were really solved. Yingmi has been engaged in the interpretation and display industry for 18 years. It has a thorough understanding of the special scene of cruise ships and has solid practical experience. Therefore, many 5A water area scenic spots are willing to choose it. To select the right wireless tour guide system, you first need to understand exactly where the difficulty lies in cruise ship Tours, and then see which products can solve the problem. Let’s explain it step by step.

I.The headache-inducing issues in cruise ship explanations

Cruise ship explanations are different from those in land-based scenic spots. The water surface environment is special, and the spatial structure of the ships also requires careful consideration. This brings many exclusive challenges, and these challenges are also the key to choosing the right wireless tour guide system.

1.Noise interference

On the water surface, the most annoying things are the sound of the wind and waves and the roar of the cruise ship’s engine. The cruise ship started moving, with the engine running non-stop. The low-frequency noise had a strong penetrating power. Coupled with the wind blowing from the lake surface, the high-frequency parts of the tour guide’s speech were all covered up. If the tour guide tries to raise the volume as much as possible, the tone is likely to change, and tourists still won’t be able to hear the key points clearly. Besides, if the tour guide keeps Shouting all day long, their voice surely won’t be able to handle it. Besides, when the cruise ships dock and tourists board and disembark, the scene is in a mess, making it even harder for the explanations to reach the tourists’ ears. Traditional amplification equipment is basically useless here.

2.Tourists are scattered

A cruise ship usually has several places such as the deck, the front cabin, the rear cabin and the interior of the cabin. When tourists are sightseeing, they like to walk around. Some like to enjoy the scenery on the deck, while others prefer to rest in the cabin. This requires that the interpretation signal cover every corner of the ship. However, in the traditional interpretation method, tourists far from the tour guide cannot hear clearly at all. Especially on large ships, the experience of tourists in the front and back rows is too different, which is very likely to make tourists dissatisfied.

3.Unstable signal

The lake surface is wide and the electromagnetic environment is complex, which is really a big test for the signal transmission of the wireless audio guide. Ordinary wireless audio guides on water are prone to signal interruption, lag and frequency crosstalk – after all, there is nothing on the lake surface that can block the signal, and it is easy to be interfered with by other electronic devices or the natural environment during transmission. When the signal goes wrong, the explanation rhythm is completely disrupted, and the tourists’ visiting experience is also discounted.

4.Different demands

The tourists received by the cruise ships are diverse, including groups led by travel agencies, individual travelers who come out on their own, and quite a few foreign tourists. Group tourists need a tour guide to follow and explain in real time, and everyone should keep in step. Individual travelers just want to make their own decisions. They can see and listen wherever they want. Foreign tourists need explanations in multiple languages. Therefore, wireless audio guide brands need to have a wide range of products to meet these different demands.

5.Practical performance

Boat Tours usually last for several hours, and some scenic spots even offer all-day boat Tours. This requires the wireless tour guide devices to be durable and have a strong battery life. Moreover, the lake surface is rough with waves. When the cruise ships are moving, water is bound to splash on them. If the tour guide device is not waterproof, it is very likely to get damp and damaged. Besides, tour guides and tourists have to carry or wear the equipment for a long time. If it is too bulky, it will definitely make people feel tired and the experience will be poor.

II.. Wireless tour guide system suitable for cruise ships

In response to these challenges in cruise ship interpretation, Yingmi, relying on 18 years of industry experience and numerous core patented technologies, has launched several particularly suitable wireless interpretation devices. These have been used in 5A water area scenic spots such as Taihu Lake in Suzhou and Longhu Mountain in Jiangxi, and the practical effects are indeed excellent, perfectly meeting all the needs of cruise ship interpretation.

1.Team tour guide system: Multiple people play together, and the explanation does not interfere

If it’s a situation where multiple people go on a cruise together, such as a travel agency group or an enterprise team-building activity, the team tour guide system (eg. Yingmi K8) of Yingmi is the most suitable. It uses advanced wireless transmission technology. Even if the cruise ship has a metal structure and is far apart in space, the signal can still pass through. No matter whether the tourists are in front of or behind the deck or inside or outside the cabin, they can clearly hear the tour guide’s explanations. There is no need to worry about “not being able to hear from a distance” anymore.

What’s more practical is that this system supports multiple teams to explain simultaneously without interfering with each other. During the peak tourist season, several cruise ships may depart at the same time, or there may be several small groups on one ship. With this system, each group can listen to their own explanations quietly, and the chaotic situation where “one person speaks and everyone has to listen” will no longer occur. Considering the long duration of the cruise ship’s tour, this system can last for 8 to 12 hours, allowing for all-day use without any problem. Moreover, the device is compact and lightweight, making it easy for tour guides to wear and for tourists to carry without affecting their view of the scenery.

2.Self-service audio guide system: It can meet the needs of both individual tourists and foreign visitors

If you are dealing with individual travelers or foreign tourists, the self-service audio guide system (eg. Yingmi i7) of Yingmi can come in very handy. This system can automatically provide explanations based on the real-time location of tourists. Once tourists put on the device and follow the cruise ship, the corresponding explanation content will automatically appear at each scenic spot they arrive at. There is no need for a tour guide to follow. Tourists can play however they want and fully enjoy the immersive experience.

Moreover, it supports multi-language explanations, including popular languages such as English, Japanese, Korean and French, which precisely solves the problem of it being difficult to find tour guides in minor languages. Foreign tourists can also gain a deeper understanding of the culture of the scenic spots. In addition, this device is particularly easy to operate. Tourists don’t need to learn for a long time. Just pick it up and you can use it. The sound quality is clear and the signal is stable. Both individual tourists and foreign tourists feel comfortable using it.

3.Multi-channel tour guide system (MC200) : Automatically switch explanations between different areas on board

If it is a large cruise ship or one with clearly defined functional zones such as theme display areas, viewing decks, and cultural experience cabins, the multi-channel tour guide system (MC200) is very suitable. It can support automatic switching and playback in multiple areas. When the cruise ship enters different waters or tourists walk to different functional areas on the ship, the guide can automatically identify the position and switch the corresponding guide content without manual operation.

For instance, when a cruise ship arrives at the water surface corresponding to a certain historical site, the system automatically plays an introduction to that site. When tourists enter the cultural exhibition area on the ship, the equipment is replaced by explanations of the exhibits. This automatic switching function not only makes the explanations more accurate and efficient, but also eliminates the need for staff to operate manually. Tourists can hear explanations that fit the current scene in different areas. It is particularly suitable for those cruise ships that can both sightseeing and cultural display.

Summary of Yingmi Wireless Tour Guide Systems for Cruise Ships

Iii. A Complete Solution for cruise ship Explanations: Not Just providing equipment

A wireless tour guide brand suitable for cruise ship explanations should not only offer user-friendly equipment but also provide a complete solution from start to finish, covering equipment adaptation to subsequent services, eliminating all the worries of scenic spots. After being in this business for so many years, Yingmi has long developed a service system specifically designed for the cruise ship scenario.

1.Tailor-made equipment

Yingmi is well aware of the particularity of the cruise ship scenario, so it has made many specialized optimizations for the products used on cruise ships. In terms of waterproofing, the related products have reached IP54 level waterproofing. There is no need to worry about water splashes from lake waves or a slightly humid environment, which will not damage the equipment and can also extend its service life. In terms of signal, the device is equipped with an anti-interference chip. Even in complex conditions such as an open lake and multiple cruise ships crowded together, the signal can remain stable without lag or frequency crosstalk. In terms of battery life, the battery capacity has been optimized based on the duration of the cruise ship’s tour. Some products also support fast charging, ensuring stable operation even during high-intensity use in scenic spots.

2.Flexible cooperation methods

The scale of scenic spots in different water areas varies, as do the number of visitors and operation models. Therefore, the demand for wireless audio guides naturally differs as well. In response to this situation, Yingmi offers several cooperation methods including sales, leasing and joint operation. Scenic spots can choose according to their own circumstances.

If the number of visitors to the scenic area is stable and it is planned to operate for a long time, it is very cost-effective to purchase directly. Yingmi will provide precise equipment selection and configuration plans based on the number of cruise ships and the number of tourists it can accommodate. If the seasonal flow of tourists in a scenic area is particularly obvious, with a large number of people during the peak season and a small number during the off-season, the rental model is suitable. Rent the equipment during the peak season and return it during the off-season, which can reduce operating costs. There is also the joint operation model. Scenic spots do not need to invest a lot of money. They can cooperate with Yingmi to share the profits, make money together, and also share the risks.

3.After-sales service is guaranteed

Whether the equipment on the cruise ship can be used normally or not, after-sales support is extremely important. If the equipment malfunctions, the after-sales team will respond promptly. They will either provide on-site repair or directly replace the equipment, ensuring that the normal operation of the scenic area is not affected by equipment issues. Moreover, Yingmi will regularly visit the site to maintain and service the equipment. Professional technicians will inspect and debug the equipment to ensure its longer service life. In addition, for the staff of the scenic area, Yingmi will provide free operation training to ensure that everyone can skillfully use the equipment and handle minor malfunctions by themselves.

IV. Conclusion
