The city

Founded on a rocky islet, Saint-Malo lived for centuries off the sea and off those who dared it. The King’s corsairs, shipowners, deep-sea sailors: the walled city built its fortune on voyages that sometimes made England tremble.

Rebuilt stone by stone after the bombardments of August 1944, it found its granite face again without losing its soul. To this day the ramparts, the shipowners’ mansions and the narrow lanes tell four centuries of stories to anyone who knows how to listen.

“Why is there a cannonball in that wall?”
“A souvenir of the English bombardment of 1693: several façades in Saint-Malo still carry the scars…”

From a walk · Rue de la Herse

What you will live

A walk that follows you
by voice.

You decide how much time it takes

A ninety-minute stroll, a two-hour walk, a three-hour outing, a corsair half-day or a full-day grand tour: the same material builds five different walks, depending on your watch.

A voice that knows every lane

Sieges, shipwrecks, fortunes and legends: the narration starts on the exact spot where the story happened, and answers your questions in context. The narration itself needs no signal at all.

Your walk outlives the walk

At the end, Murmures writes the personal story of your day. It stays in your account for good, like a page of a travel journal that wrote itself.

The Saint-Malo walks

The same city.
For two, or for the family.

One walk, complete, with no cut-down version: both offers open exactly the same Saint-Malo. They differ only in how many people can listen at once.

Frequently asked questions

How do you buy a walk?

Right inside the app. You pick your offer, Escapade or Odyssée. Every city sets its own price; for Saint-Malo it is €9.90 and €19.90. The amount is always shown before you confirm, and paying is simple and secure.

Once payment goes through, your walk opens for 96 hours, four full days, counted from the moment you pay. A single purchase, no subscription, no hidden fees.

Escapade or Odyssée: how to choose?

Count phones, not places. Both offers open exactly the same walk: same places, same stories, same 96 hours. Neither is a lighter version of the other.

The Escapade, €9.90, covers up to two phones: for a couple, a pair of friends, or someone walking alone.

The Odyssée, €19.90, covers up to six, with the narration synced across devices: a family, a group of friends, nobody leaning in to listen. At six, that is under €3.50 a head.

What exactly does unlocking include?

Everything, for 96 hours, across the territory of your walk: the full narration of every place, the route that adapts to your time, the questions answered live by the city, and the personal write-up produced at the end, which stays in your account for good.

How much does a walk cost?

The exact price of each walk is shown in the app when you unlock: clearly, before any payment.

If a partner gave you a QR code (hotel, guesthouse, restaurant, shop), the discount they negotiated comes off automatically at payment.

Why does the walk last 96 hours?

Because that is the length of a real stay. Four full days cover a long weekend: you can start on Thursday evening, pick it up again on Saturday after the tide, finish on Sunday. The walk pauses and resumes freely throughout that window.

And if you come back later, the Return Pass reopens your walk without buying the city again, with your progress untouched.

Does it work without a signal?

Yes, and it is a design rule. When you unlock, the entire walk (maps, texts, audio) is downloaded onto your phone. On the ramparts, in the lanes, along the shore: the narration never depends on a signal.

Only questions asked live need a connection; if there is none, they wait patiently until you find one again.

Can we walk as a group, as a family?

Yes. Create a group in the app and the narration syncs across every phone, to the second: everyone with their own earphones, everyone in the same story, even if the children are running ten metres ahead. Each person can ask their own questions.

I scanned a partner’s QR code. What now?

That QR code attaches the discount negotiated by that partner to your Murmures account. There is nothing else to do: when you unlock your walk, the discount is already applied. One code per stay and per account, and it waits for you even if you install the app later.

Which languages does the city speak?

Saint-Malo tells itself first in French, with English and Spanish versions, and more languages arriving step by step. You choose the language in the app, and it can differ from one device to another within the same group.

A problem, a question, a refund?

Write to us: contact@murmures-visites.com. It is a real address, read by real people, and we answer quickly. If something went wrong during your walk, we will find a solution: that is part of a premium experience too.
