VoiceMap Audio Tour of Toulouse with Elyse
The Glory of Occitania
Elyse’s audio tour of Toulouse is an great choice when a personalized, guided visit with her is not possible.
The tour, which begins at the Place de Gaulle, (metro Capitole on the other side of the Capitole Square), gives you a large overview of the history of Toulouse through the centuries. The audioguide takes you to most of what you would visit on the Great Monuments Tour plus some surprise extras. The audioguide also includes an option for visiting the interiors of St Sernin and the Jacobins, and you learn more about the history of the city center in the 19th century.
The audio tour takes you on a walk that is about 3 km (1 ½ miles) long. You can pace the walk to suit yourself. Start it or stop it when you wish.
There isn’t the possibility to converse with Elyse, ask her questions, or listen to her impromptu stories, but for some this is a great way to visit the city.
Just like in the Great Monuments Walk the tour ends at the Hotel Assezat near the Pont Neuf.

Elyse is a fabulous guide! The information she provides is detailed and interesting. She paces the directions and instructions perfectly to match a casual walking pace so one can look around at all the things you are walking past in addition to the things she is describing. Her tour is a wonderful introduction to the beautiful city of Toulouse.

Elyse’s tour of Toulouse was a fabulous way to see the highlights of the city and get a thorough overview of the city. She offers so much detail and historical context for everything you see, bringing to life this beautiful city. Her pacing was just right—not too slow, not too fast. And her narration was really perfect, you will enjoy looking at these great sights while hearing her soothing voice. I highly recommend this audio tour for anyone new to Toulouse, or returning visitors who want to learn more about these highlights of the city.

La Ville Rose is a beautiful city with a great history. This tour will bring all Toulouse has to offer and so much more. Clear, concise, and detailed. Terrific value given the length of tour and amount of detail.
