App Description

Paris is the most visited city in the world, but how many people ever get to the real heart of the place? On a short break time is tight and it can be difficult to break away from the traditional tourist trails, whilst long-term residents tend to get trapped in the routines of everyday life. We would all like a personal tour guide who could show us new places and tell us the stories behind these sites, but few of us would be willing to pay the high prices professional guides charge. Anyway, wouldn't we all prefer to just take these tours at our own pace without constraints of time and pre-defined programmes?

It is for this reason that I have created a series of original walking tours around the city. These won't take you to the traditional tourist areas but will show you a different side of the city, an invisible side where ordinary people live and work, but which nevertheless is filled with fascinating places and incredible stories.

The walks feature full descriptions of points of interest as well as a map and a selection of original photos. Each walk is based around a particular theme, and generally in a limited geographical area.

The walks are also an extension of the http://www.invisibleparis.net blog where many of the sites have previously been featured.
