Seeing several places in one day in Paris means moving constantly between the metro, RER, buses and trams. Zeppelin Map takes all the stops on your day and organises them into a single itinerary, automatically putting them in the most efficient order and working out the best route on public transport. This is the heart of the app: multi-stop optimisation. You add the places you want to visit, in any order, and the Bibomap engine reorders them for you to keep your travelling time as low as possible, using real-time transit data for the Île-de-France region. A whole day, planned at once, entirely on public transport — the simplest and most accessible way to get around Paris. The places we suggest are hand-picked, with real photos: restaurants, museums, cafés. A few good spots instead of an endless list of dots on a map. When you find one you like, you add it to your itinerary and book it with a single tap. KEY FEATURES • Multi-stop optimisation: add several places and the app finds the best order and route on public transport for you • Real-time transit data for the Île-de-France region (metro, RER, bus, tram) • Disruption alerts: tells you if a line has problems along your route • Suggested visit times for each place, with the option to anchor a stop to a specific time • A heads-up when you're getting close to your stop • A Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, plus a Home Screen widget • Curated places with photos and one-tap booking • Station exit guidance, so you can get your bearings as soon as you arrive • Useful services on the map: free public toilets, drinking fountains and defibrillators • Trip stats: kilometres walked, calories and CO₂ saved • Available in 20 languages PRIVACY Zeppelin Map works with no account and no sign-up. Your addresses stay only on your device, and we don't sell your data to anyone. Anonymous diagnostics are off by default — you turn them on yourself, only if you want to. Zeppelin Map is made for people visiting Paris who want to enjoy the city instead of spending the day working out connections. You choose where to go; we'll take care of the rest.
