In the recent years, there is a growing interest in exploiting the advances of mobile and pervasive computing to museum environments. A mobile museum guide, named iMuse Mobile Tour is presented in this paper. The guide utilizes UHF RFID technology to provide context aware information services. It comprises predefined and self-defined tours as well as interactive games to stimulate learning. A group support service is introduced, which enables group visitors to exploit guidance services on their private mobile phones. The service provides access to information retrieved by museum's RFID enabled devices.
