La Balade – Guided Tours

May 9 to October 12
Discover the Quays and their history by taking a
guided tour aboard this little motorized train on wheels
that runs from one end of the site to the other, for over
two kilometers. You can also use it to travel from one
activity to the next.

Whether it’s for a guided historical tour of the Quays or to get from one part of the site to another, just climb aboard La Balade, a little train on wheels that runs along the Promenade between the Clock Tower and the locks.

Got the history bug? The guided tour puts the sights in fascinating historical context. Relaxing and fun!
La Balade is an easy, comfortable way to travel between any two points along the Quays.
