About this tour

This evening session follows Rue Perrière as its canalside bars light up, finishing at a quieter footbridge away from the busiest terraces. You see the reflections stretch across the water as the evening builds. Laurine, who grew up on this exact street, explains how the nightlife here has changed over the years she has watched it.

The call opens with a sound check as the light fades, then follows the canal at an easy pace. Laurine keeps things relaxed and takes questions as they come, treating the session more like a conversation than a lecture. A short list of the stops follows by message once the call ends.

This suits anyone curious about Annecy's evening side rather than its daytime lake views. It also suits viewers simply enjoying a calm, reflective walk.

Included

  • Live video walk with a local guide
  • Questions to your guide all the way
  • A short list of places to visit later

Not included

  • Internet connection
  • Travel to the city

Itinerary

  1. Welcome and sound check 5 min

    The guide joins the video call, checks the picture and sound with you, and gives you a quick sense of Annecy before heading out.

  2. Rue Perrière canalside bars 21 min

    The camera follows the canal as bar lights come on along Rue Perrière, reflections stretching across the water below. I point out which bars have kept the same canalside terraces for decades.

  3. A quiet bridge crossing 21 min

    You see a quieter footbridge away from the busiest terraces, the water calmer and darker here. I explain why locals often cross here rather than joining the crowds further along.

  4. Your questions 9 min

    Time to ask anything about Annecy: prices, safety, food, or whatever you are curious about.

  5. A short list to keep 4 min

    Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Farçon savoyard and Le Paquier, worth a slower look.

Good to know

  • A stable wifi or mobile connection makes the picture smoother than a shaky one.
  • Any phone, tablet or laptop with a camera works. You watch, the guide does the walking.
  • Times are shown in Paris time, so check the time where you are before you book.
  • The session is not recorded, and recording it yourself is not allowed. Feel free to take your own notes.
  • Ask questions any time, out loud or in the chat. The guide will pause to answer.
  • Sessions run in small groups, up to 9 people, so there is room for everyone to ask something.

Questions about this tour

What happens if my connection drops?

Rejoin with the same link within a few minutes and the guide will catch you up on anything you missed.

Can I ask the guide questions during the session, or is it a fixed script?

Anything, any time. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.

Is this suitable if I do not drink?

Yes. Say so when you book and the guide will focus on the atmosphere and venues rather than the drinks list.

How reviews work

Only travellers who booked and paid through Locals Guide and whose tour took place can leave a review, within 60 days of the tour. Every review is marked "Verified booking".

Guides cannot pay for, edit or hide reviews, and ratings are the plain average of all published reviews.
