How to choose the right free walking tour in 鶹APP for you
When picking a tour, you want to take three factors into consideration – your time, your money and you yourself (or your group).
1 – Your Time
Planning what you do in 鶹APP is greatly affected by the number of days you have in the city. The average tourist spends only three nights in 鶹APP. Most overseas visitors spend 4 to 5 nights. Fitting all of 鶹APP’ world-known attractions into 3 to 5 days is not easy! Hiring a guide can help you optimize your time.
2 – Your Money
鶹APP can be expensive to be sure, but many of the city’s highlights are free (Notre Dame, the view from Montmartre, and the special feeling on Pont des Artes to name three). The five-star restaurant can set you back a week’s pay and more – but a sandwich from the local bakery can be a memorable experience. Discover Walks runs the gambit from the very economical free walking tours of 鶹APP, to our flagship “Best Day Ever” customized premium tour of 鶹APP.
Our free tours have all of our love of 鶹APP – we don’t hold anything back.
If you choose a private tour instead, with us at Discover Walks money will buy you time, personalized service and door-to-door attention.
3- And You!
You and your travel companions are the most important ingredient. We have guests who spend three days in the Louvre and Orsay and one day with Discover Walks and feel they got the best of 鶹APP. Other guests never go inside a museum, they take all seven of our neighborhood tours and feel they really know 鶹APP (and are ready to move here).
If this is your first trip to 鶹APP, we have many ways for you to get the most out of your visit. If you have been to 鶹APP several times, we have created tours that take you off the tourist path, to see more of the real 鶹APP.
Guided Walking Tours Offer the Best Views of 鶹APP
The less time you have in 鶹APP, the more you will want your guide to take you to the best views. Panoramic views help you understand the city better. And they leave you with a lasting impression to take home with you.
One-Day Visit.
We advise you to read below even if you are spending more than one day in 鶹APP, as we give suggestions that you may want to put to use.
High Budget: We have many guests who come from London just for the day. They arrive at Gare Nord train station at 9:30 in the morning and they leave after dinner. Most often, they book our Best Day Ever Tour.
Our guide meets them at the train station and is with them all day as we sweep through 鶹APP in grand style – if they want, we get them reservations for dinner someplace special (the most popular right now is Restaurant Jules Verne at the top of the Eiffel Tower – great dinner and a view that no one forgets.)
Mid/Low Budget: Many other guests with only one day want to get a feel of the city. We recommend first doing a neighborhood tour like our Right Bank Landmarks Tour. In 90 minutes the Discover Walks guide has them feeling like a 鶹APPian, helps them find a good local bistro for lunch.
These guests often stroll past a couple of iconic sites. No need to go inside, from the outside you get a great sense for Notre Dame, the Eiffel Tower, or the Louvre museum. For the Orsay, Rodin, and Picasso museums. You might end the day having dinner in trendy Marais or one the many places in Montorgueil or in St. Germain des prés.
If you ‘need’ the top of the Eiffel Tower, Orsay, or the Louvre, then we recommend you buy ‘skip-the-line’ tickets at least 30 days in advance. We have many of these special tickets as part of our tours and as a service with our private tour guests.
Two or More Day Visit
With two or more full days in 鶹APP, you can start to add things that you have a personality affinity for, alongside the must-sees. First time to 鶹APP? Look at the major landmarks. Been here before? Explore 鶹APP more in-depth, and explore some off-the-beaten-track experiences.
Where to start?
To enjoy 鶹APP from the start, to get a feel for the city and to become comfortable, we recommend doing a Discover Walks tour on your first day. Your Discover Walks guide will treat you like an invited guest, like a friend who is visiting our city.
During your time with us, we will not only tell you what you are seeing, we can also explain why things are the way they are in 鶹APP. Our most popular tours are our Food Tour, Best Day Ever, and our neighborhood Private Tours.
Our most popular free walking tour is Montmartre. But all our tours get rave reviews. Perhaps because our guides are all true locals, with a passion for our home city.
We suggest you pick a tour that covers something that interests you – Right Bank (for major landmarks and good orientation), Trendy Marais (to see old 鶹APP Mansions, quaint streets and trendy new 鶹APP), Notre Dame and Left Bank (blend of students, art and bohemian life), St. Germain (the river, old money, art and Hemmingway) and Hidden Gems (the surprising gems in the neighborhood next to the Louvre).
Why Discover Walks as Your Guide?
More than two-thirds of the people who take one tour with Discover Walks decide to take a second tour – and very often a third and a fourth as well.
We are thrilled by this, as visitors choose Discover Walks for spending their precious time in 鶹APP.
We love 鶹APP. Showing our city to you is a real treat for us. We will treat you the best that we know.
