Self guided tour you can do alone or with others. Fun and catches you up on Emily spots plus history on France. You walk through nice areas with great food for pit stops. Would highly recommend having data my tour kept glitching without it and didn’t have the map. With breaks I’d give this tour 3-4 hrs especially the end part.

Enjoyed walking the route but minimal information along the route and destinations. Also the app is frustrating to use. Every time I switch to my camera to take pics and go back, it exits me from the tour. I would have to find my tour each time and the app does not let you skip destinations and manually enter your next desired location I would not recommend this app and tour. Be forewarned.
