About this tour
Trace Lupin’s Paris on a self-guided walking tour that pairs fictional intrigue with stories rooted in the city’s past. This Paris self-guided walking tour lets you explore without a group or fixed schedule, following GPS-triggered audio and turn-by-turn directions through the route.
Along the way, see buildings associated with routes used by members of the Resistance during World War II, including access through the Catacombs to avoid detection by the Nazis. Hear stories from Comte de Saint-Germain, a fictional local character presented as a source of historical knowledge. Take the walk in about an hour, or linger at stops and set your own pace. You can also use the virtual tour option at home.
Before setting out, install the VoiceMap app and enter the code from your confirmation ticket. Download the audio, maps, and geodata for offline access, then follow the app to the starting point. The tour does not include entry to attractions along the way, so admission is separate. Set off whenever you’re ready and discover Paris through a story-led walk.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.00 from 5 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Paris
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.8.
