About this tour
Explore Montpellier's 19 key sites on a 3.5 km self-guided audio walk that takes roughly 90 minutes. The route threads through the Écusson's medieval lanes, past the Opera Comedy, up to the Tower of Babote, and into the Jardin des Plantes and Promenade du Peyrou. You'll find local markets, restaurants, and hidden corners without a guide shadowing you. Nineteen audio snippets in French, English, or Spanish supply historical context and architectural detail. The app works offline, so you can wander at your own pace without eating data.

What to expect
You download the app, fire it up, and navigate yourself around the city with no group, no fixed times. The audio guides trigger at each of the 19 marked points—mostly architectural or historical tidbits that help you understand what you're looking at. You'll pass through working markets where locals shop, stroll gardens designed centuries ago, and duck into quiet streets most visitors miss. The pace is entirely yours. Some stops are 30 seconds; others deserve five minutes to soak in the surroundings. The 3D map shows you where to go next, and offline mode means you're not dependent on signal.
