Montparnasse tower and quarter Self-Guided Audio Tour (without Ticket)

About this experience

What do you think about the Montparnasse tower? It was erected 50 years ago, but discussions around it are still ongoing. It is the first and only skyscraper in the center of Paris; designing other skyscrapers was prohibited after its construction. Montparnasse tower symbolized France's technological and aesthetic changes and the ideal that French society aspired to. This tour will interest anyone who would like to look at the city from an unexpected angle. You will see Paris, which takes risks and is not afraid to transform. However, this walk also appeals to people in love with the classic Paris, with its cozy cafes that have not changed for centuries. Your tour will start here in the Montparnasse Tower, where you can enjoy a 360-degree view of the city. You will see a panorama of Paris with its iconic buildings, including the Eiffel Tower, Sacre-Coeur, Notre Dame, and the Louvre. Further, as a bonus, the tour will take you around the Montparnasse quartier. You will see the legendary Bobino and those restaurants where  Picasso, Hemingway, Modigliani, and many others used to meet. Your walk will end at the Montparnasse cemetery, where you can find the graves of your favorite writers, artists, or musicians. Note! This tour is not affiliated with the Tower but is provided by an independent creator.
