About this tour
Navigate 1880s Montmartre through your phone with this GPS-based walking game that blends history and interactive storytelling. You'll explore bohemian Paris at your own pace over roughly 3 hours, following an app that guides you through the neighbourhood's cabarets, studios, and street corners where artists once lived and worked. Pause whenever you like, pick it up later—no fixed schedule, no tour guide trailing behind.

What to expect
Download the app before you arrive (details in your confirmation email). Once you're on location, the app becomes your compass and storyteller, pinpointing locations and layering narratives as you walk. You'll encounter historical anecdotes, neighbourhood landmarks, and atmospheric details that paint life in 19th-century Montmartre. There's no guide meeting you, no set departure time—you're genuinely in charge. Expect to wander residential streets, pause at cafés, and occasionally double-back if the app's GPS signal wavers. The terrain is pedestrian-friendly, though stairs appear throughout the neighbourhood.
Good to know
One ticket covers one device—multiple people can huddle round it. Public transport nearby if your legs need rest. The app requires a decent internet connection; mobile data recommended. Not suitable if you have significant mobility issues or vision impairment. Bring a charged phone and comfortable shoes.
