Excellent Marais walking tour
Excellent tour with great Jewish background and information. We highly recommend this to anyone interested in the Jewish history of the Marais
via Tripadvisor
We found the app very...
We found the app very confusing. The directions were not clear and we ended up not using it. The audio part for the first five minutes was very well done
Response from the operator: Sorry to hear that. 1000's take this tour and write great feedback, I'm sorry it did not work out for you! There is an arrow in the app that points to the next stop, and a map to follow along with the blue dot as your location. Sorry it did not work out for you. I do try to get the instruction spoken to be as clear as possible and the whole tour is produced the same as those first 5 minutes. Please email me at info@walkntours.com, I"m happy to refund you. Thanks, Greg @ WalknTours

While I did learn some...
While I did learn some things, the speaker was so elementary at times that it seemed condescending. The pronunciation was not goods for words that are generally accepted in all languages. An example would be falafel! And the sync with GPS which was promised was somewhat off. But the price was right.
via Viator
I couldn’t always find...
I couldn’t always find what the recording was talking about but I wanted something self paced so it was worth the slight annoyance. I found the major sites without being shuttled on someone else’s clock
via Viator
Awesome for what I needed
I learned so much without the waiting and all that goes into a group event. Well worth the money!

Paris Jewish Quarter Marais Smartphone GPSAPP Audio Walking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.
How much does Paris Jewish Quarter Marais Smartphone GPSAPP Audio Walking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $5 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Paris usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Paris Jewish Quarter Marais Smartphone GPSAPP Audio Walking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Paris is not rushed.
Is Paris Jewish Quarter Marais Smartphone GPSAPP Audio Walking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 15 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Paris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Paris Jewish Quarter Marais Smartphone GPSAPP Audio Walking Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Paris Jewish Quarter Marais Smartphone GPSAPP Audio Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Paris Jewish Quarter Marais Smartphone GPSAPP Audio Walking Tour?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Paris can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Paris and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Paris Jewish Quarter Marais Smartphone GPSAPP Audio Walking Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Paris within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Paris?
+
Paris rewards travelers who book ahead. The headline museums sell timed entry weeks out, the best food walks cap at eight people, and the Seine cruises that are worth doing are the ones that leave after sunset. Everything below is scored by the Outty Ranking so you can tell a genuine local favorite from a coach-tour filler in a single glance. On Outty we rank every Paris experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Paris City Center Free Walking Tour (Tip-Based), Louvre Museum Premium Guided Tour 6 GUESTS MAX Entry Included, Louvre Museum Essential Guided Tour Semi Private 6 GUESTS MAX. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Paris?
+
April to June and September to October, when queues thin out and terraces stay open late. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Paris?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
