I tried Hop Stop Voice below and it worked perfectly.
You can also get bus, subway, train or walking directions online by typing in your Start and Destination addresses (like Mapquest) or by pointing to a map.
A cool feature is the Taxi fare calculator. HopStop will estimate the cab fare and travel time if you chose to forego public transportation.
Besides directions, Hop Stop will list nearby attractions, bars, hotel, restaurants and shopping near your Start or Destination addresses. Also locate nearby banks, post offices and REAL ESTATE OFFICES.
There is much more to HopStop (like 360° views, city guides and ratings) but you’ll have to take a cyberwalk over. A really cool and useful website for navigating a city.

This and Fropio are pretty interesting. Where do you learn about this stuff?
Hi Sam.
I read a lot of magazines & newspapers, watch niche TV and talk to a lot of people. I ask those outside the real estate industry what cool websites or applications they have discovered. Then I check them out. If they are relatively easy to use, I pass them on here. Good online sources include lifehacker and appscout.
