The Free Tour - Paris
We have decided to discontinue The Free Tour and instead focus on our fabulous bicycle, Segway and walking tours of Paris. We'll look forward to welcoming you on one or more of those!
The Free Tour is the original Paris walking tour created for the budget-orientated traveler who wants to see the 'City of Light' as never before. The Free Tour is the latest offering from the Paris experts - Fat Tire Bike Tours - who have been leading tens of thousands of independent travelers through the streets and to the sites since 1999.
On The Free Tour you'll receive a great orientation, informative historical and current-day information, heaps of unique and fascinating stories, fantastic photo ops and superb personal service from your guide. And how can we guarantee all this? Because we've been doing it in Paris for almost a decade and are far and above the most popular English-speaking tour of the city!
The Free Tour is absolutely free - no gimmicks. Your guide works on a tips-only basis, and while gratuities are always appreciated for a job well-done, our #1 priority is to show you a great time!
Our 3.5 hour walk covers virtually every major site in the city center. Be sure to come with us as early in your stay as possible in order to take advantage of all the incredible information we have to offer. Don't miss out!
