What to expect

You'll spend two hours walking neighbourhoods at a leisurely pace, scanning walls and alleyways for small pixelated mosaic tiles. The guide leads the route but leaves plenty of the hunt to you—spotting these pieces yourself feels more rewarding than having them handed over. Expect a mix of major Paris landmarks and quieter backstreets where the art sits alongside everyday shop fronts and apartment buildings. The guide shares context about who created these works and why they've become a phenomenon among Parisians. It's less formal lecture, more rambling conversation with someone who genuinely loves the city's underground culture.

Good to know

Wear comfortable shoes; you'll cover ground on foot across multiple arrondissements. Bring a phone or camera if you want to photograph finds. The walk works rain or shine, though wet weather might make some mosaics harder to spot. Prams are fine. Public transport stations are nearby if you need to head elsewhere after.
