Guidekin's take

Games, songs and stories turn the Gothic Quarter walk into an activity for children aged four to twelve.

A guide and activity book are included; each booking needs at least one adult and one child, and the walk runs even in heavy rain. 4.96 from 473 reviews at €21 per person for 2h 30m.

In our comparison: #5 of 48 in Walking Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
