This walk is one for jazz lovers! Come and join us as we visit the haunts of the Jazz musicians of the 1920s and 30s in the area of Pigalle and the Moulin Rouge. We will hear of Josephine Baker, the clown Chocolat, and circus which inspired the artists Lautrec and Picasso. Accompany us as we discover the cabarets where Edith Piaf was discovered and where the Paris jazz craze was born.

Please come prepared for the weather and wear comfortable shoes.
