Looking for something to do nearby, whether you're in your home city or in a city that's new to you? Check out Kamino.

Every hike takes you on a walking tour of a neighborhood, complete with user-generated information such as area descriptions, photos, maps, and local recommendations.

Optimized for iPhone and iPod touch running iOS 6.1 or later, Kamino is available in the App Store for free.
