Audio guided tours of the city of Troyes in English

from 1/1/2010 to 12/31/2010
Walks and sports

For the first time, Troyes Tourist Office will be offering its individual english clientèle (families, tourists, juniors, seniors... the whole public).

These 3 audio guided tours cover the whole of the heart of the city, commonly called the "Champagne Cork" here, due to its very special and evocative shape:- one tour covering the "body" of the "cork", the upper part of the city, where coloured timber-frame buildings rub shoulders with stone town houses typical of the Renaissance period.- the second covering the "head" of the cork, the lower part where Troyes was founded in Gallo-Roman times and which is presided over by the majestic cathedral.- the third, across the whole of the city, is more particularly suited to a younger clientèle.In this way everyone, using devices incorporating the latest technology (GPS), and thanks to a series of 25 commentaries supported by carefully chosen music, can according to their taste at their leisure tour the former capital of the Counts of Champagne in the Middle Ages where History reigns and architectural riches are everywhere

Launch planned for the beginning of 2010

Price: from €4 per person (according to the tour chosen)
