The National Geographic Society and Gowalla– the popular location-based social networking game–are proud to announce a new collection of trips featuring hand-picked destinations from the Nat Geo staff.
Nat Geo’s “Gowalla Passport” offers 15 city walking tours, each with 8-15 spots to check-in with your GPS-enabled mobile device. If you visit every spot on the tour, you’ll earn a special National Geographic digital pin. Explore places like New York’s Museum Mile, Rome’s Via Veneto, or San Francisco’s Chinatown. You can even check-in at the National Geographic Headquarters and Museum in Washington, D.C.
“Gowalla provides a new avenue for National Geographic to connect
people across the globe with incredible destinations,” said Robert
Michael Murray, Vice President of Social Media for National Geographic
Digital Media. “Through Gowalla Trips, we can extend National
Geographic digital travel experiences to people on the go and inspire
them to explore and discover the places around them in a deeper, more
meaningful way.”
So go out, explore, and check-in the National Geographic way!
