Frequently asked questions about audio tours of Paris
Is there a self-guided audio tour of Paris?
Yes. Avsha generates a personalized, self-guided audio tour of Paris on the fly — press play and it narrates a story about wherever you're standing, from Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame, Sacré-Cœur to a quiet corner of Le Marais. No fixed route, no guide, and it works on any street, not just the famous ones.
What's the best free audio tour app for Paris?
Avsha is free to start (3 stories, no signup) and built for Paris: it tailors each story to your interests, travel mode and language (60+ supported), and never repeats. Unlike a fixed catalog of a few recorded stops, it can tell the story of any spot in the city.
Can I use it offline while walking around Paris?
Yes — with Trip Packs you download stories over WiFi before you go and listen anywhere in Paris, even in airplane mode or with no signal.
Do I need to book a tour or follow a set path in Paris?
No. Avsha isn't a scheduled walking tour — just open it wherever you are in Paris and press play. Wander Le Marais, double back, or stand in front of the Eiffel Tower and it adapts to you in real time.
How much does an audio tour of Paris cost?
It's free to try. After your first few stories you can top up with an affordable credit pack or go Pro for unlimited exploring — far less than a guided Paris walking tour, and yours to use anywhere in the world.
