ReadtheWay is a literary tourism app. As a result, we aim to offer a new form of travel combined with culture and literature. Additionally, we seek to provide new travel experiences and perspectives.
Why?
We believe tourism should be more than just visiting great monuments, above all it should be an interactive, culturally enriching experience.
How?
ReadtheWay challenges you to experience a new form of tourism through themed routes associated with books, authors, local themes and much more.
Problems of Literary tourism...
1. Literary tourism is limited by author’s houses and museums.
2. Lack of interactive reading experiences for literary tourists.
3. Literary tourism and city sightseeing aren't linked.
And now?
Choose a destination.
Choose a route. Read. Walk. Know.
A small route to honor the Portuguese 25th of April from 1974. Known as the “Carnation Revolution”.
With texts from 9 different Portuguese writers linked to a path that passes through the iconic places of that day, this route could be an excellent start!
In short, we want to make literary tourism accessible to everyone everywhere. From the bigger cities to the lesser known towns. Thus, with or without literary background every location is a new world worth exploring.
