ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Cell phone tour

Okay, kiddo, let me tell you what a cell phone tour is all about. Do you know what a tour is? It's when you go around a place and see and learn new things. Just like when we go to the zoo or a park to see different kinds of animals and trees.

Now, a cell phone tour is just like that, but instead of a guide or a map, you use your own cell phone to guide you around. You call a special number or access a website, and then you'll hear or read information about the place you're visiting.

Let's say we're at a historic monument, and we want to know more about it. We can dial a number, and a voice will guide us through the area, telling us stories and facts about the monument. Or we can scan a QR code with our phone's camera, and a website will open where we can see pictures and read more information about it.

The best thing about a cell phone tour is that you can go at your own pace. You can stop and listen or read more, or you can skip ahead if you want to. And you don't have to worry about keeping up with a tour group or missing out on something important.

So, that's it, little one. A cell phone tour is like having your own personal guide with you all the time, telling you about the cool things you see on a trip. Pretty cool, huh?
