This Tickets is fake, we bought it and searched for it, asked for it and got told at the Gate that it is an incorrect address. So please don't book this from trip advisor. We lost our money and wasted 1 hour to search for it, since the address the ticket showed is not open to the public

El lugar es muy hermoso, sin embargo quede decepcionado de Viator, porque nunca entendí que cosa incluía el ticket de tour auto-guiado que compré… me imaginé que al menos la App me iba a sugerir donde dirigirme y darme un reseña histórica de cada lugar pero nada. Sólo me dio direcciones para llegar al lugar (lo mismo que hace Google Maps pero gratis)

Nadie me explico que no había guia X lo que perdí tiempo y me estrese La guía virtual no era útil para encontrar los lugares

Definitivamente cuando estas en París, este recorrido no puede faltar, aprendes, te diviertes, conoces de la cultura, la historia y el arte.... super recomendado.

Un recorrido que no te puedes perder estando en Paris. Su calles llenas de cultura, historia, magia y arte se acompañan exquisitamente con esta banda sonora que te guía por los más emblemáticos rincones del barrio que vio desarrollarse a personajes como Vincent Van Gogh y Pablo Picasso. ¡No olvides darte una pasada a almorzar por Le Moulin de la Galette!

Recorrer las calles de Montmartre ha sido fantástico, un barrio lleno de historia, arte, monumentos, lleno de escenas fílmicas y hogar de Vincent Van Gogh!!!
