Soundwalk Paris Belleville (EN - Gift)
Soundwalks are walking audio tours that use the cityscape as a backdrop for a fiction, like in a movie. The visitor downloads a Soundwalk on his iPhone, and takes a one-hour tour guided by the voice of an iconic figure from the city.
"Voted #1 Walking Tour"- New York Magazine
"Soundwalk Turns NYC Tourists into Natives"- ABC News
"The tours - narrated by locals and flavored with quotes and anecdotes from neighborhood characters - let you act natural and lead you into places most out-of-towners would be afraid to go."- Time Out
"Soundwalk's neighborhood-specific programs weave through both well-known haunts and off-the-map spots, giving listeners the inside dope on what makes an area tick."- Village Voice
"What Soundwalk has to offer is amazing.The genuine idea is to engage a famous person (an actor or writer for instance) to talk about some neighborhood of the city so you could experience Paris beyond standard touristic offering. All this is followed by the unique sound track, plus there are custom maps with points of interest and walking directions — creating a fun and learning experience, as a result."- IntoMobile
"A Soundwalk is a new and ingenious kind of audio walking tour, one that's designed - through a sophisticated mix of 'insider' narrative, music, and sound effects - to provide a revitalized awareness of the NY neighborhood."- NY Times
"Soundwalks - a hip series of audio walking tours - are like movies you can stroll through"- Time Magazine
A RENDEZ-VOUS IN BELLEVILLE IN PARIS WITH FLORENCE LOIRET-CAILLE
The pursuit of a lost love through Belleville, one of Paris’ last popular neighborhoods, narrated by Florence Loiret-Caille with an original soundtrack composed by Spleen. With a hint of nostalgia, this tour features residents who are the living memory of a neighborhood that witnessed major changes.
Florence Loiret-Caille has not heard from her lover for days. His name is Spleen, and he is a bohemian musician. He has disappeared without leaving a lead. Florence takes us through her neighborhood of Belleville looking for Spleen. Belleville is the last bastion of the working-class and culturally diverse Paris. Tracing the steps of workers’ strikes, Florence shows us Jewish Tunisian cafés, mosques, old industrial alleys, and shadows of the 1870 Commune... In the old neighborhood of Edith Piaf it is not always “la vie en rose,” and everyone knows that the boundary between love and despair is fine.
