Abstract: The paper addresses the issue of design and development of mobile apps providing the functionality of interactive multimedia guides (e-guides) for tourist attractions. It proposes a new specification of the e-guide development process, designed within the framework of the BalticMuseums: Love IT! project aimed at designing and implementing e-guide-based tours in a number of diverse tourist attractions of the South Baltic area. Assuming that it is the visitors themselves that can help best in such design and development of e-guides that the final result meets the visitors’ expectations, the proposed process has been based on the user-centered design methodology. The paper describes the basics of the chosen approach, presents the assumptions which affected formulation of the proposed process, and, most of all, defines its stages as well as demonstrates its compliance with the adopted methodological approach.
