Paris
Private Paris Montmartre Walking Tour
Overview
Montmartre is one of the oldest districts of Paris, perched atop a hill. Once a village outside Paris, this artistic refuge is famous worldwide for its painters in Place du Tertre and the Sacred Heart Basilica. This area is steeped in history, known for its artists, unique architecture, and vibrant nightlife.
Your French native guide will reveal Montmartre's rich heritage: from Roman inhabitants and the martyrdom of Saint Denis to its golden age as the epicenter of Parisian artistic life. Montmartre has been home to legendary artists including Pablo Picasso, Vincent Van Gogh, Auguste Renoir, Claude Monet, Émile Zola, Jacques Prévert, Jean Cocteau, and Édith Piaf.
Experience the village atmosphere, stroll hidden streets with elegant villas and former artist studios, and discover why this "crowned" hilltop neighborhood continues to captivate visitors with its colors, liveliness, and timeless bohemian spirit.
