Highlights

Montmartre is unique in so many ways, and we aim to acquaint you with every single one of them. During this tour, you will learn about its religious history; its rural, agricultural history; about that time when it was an important piece of the revolutionary puzzle, and a site where the fate of the city and indeed the country was decided; about that time it was all the rage among the 19th century hipsters and turn of the century artists. Throughout all these, very different eras, Montmartre maintained its original character and the seemingly eternal tendency to never fit in. Take stroll down the history lane of this ever exciting and vibrant quarter for a truly authentic experience.

About Paris

Paris pairs grand boulevards and riverside monuments with café terraces, art collections of global stature and neighbourhoods that feel like villages.

The Seine runs through the heart of the city, past the Île de la Cité with Notre-Dame and the Sainte-Chapelle, the long façade of the Louvre and the Musée d'Orsay in its former railway station. Downriver, the Eiffel Tower rises over the Champ de Mars, and the Arc de Triomphe crowns the Champs-Élysées.

Top-ranked sights in Paris: Louvre Museum, Eiffel Tower, 4th Arrondissement.
