This action research created an application system using robots as a tool for training English-language tour guides. It combined artificial intelligence (AI) and virtual reality (VR) technologies to develop content for tours and a 3D VR environment using the AI Unity plug-in for programming. Students learned to orally interact with the robot and act as a guide to various destinations. The qualitative methods included observation, interviews, and self-reporting of learning outcomes. Two students voluntarily participated in the study. The intervention lasted for ten weeks. The results indicated the teaching effectiveness of robot-assisted language learning (RALL). The students acknowledged the value of RALL and had positive attitudes toward it. The contextualized VR learning environment increased their motivation and engagement in learning, and students perceived that RALL could help develop autonomy, enhance interaction, and provide an active learning experience. The implications of the study are that RALL has potential and that it provides an alternative learning opportunity for students.
