Overview
Montmartre is the bohemian soul of Paris — and has been for centuries. On this walking tour, you’ll find out why. From painters like Monet, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Van Gogh, to writers like Zola and Marcel Aymé, to stars like Dalida, this hill has always drawn the dreamers. Wander past old windmills, one of the last working vineyards in Paris, and streets full of ivy-covered charm. See the spots from films like Amélie and Emily in Paris, and take in sweeping views from the steps of the Sacre-Cœur. Your guide brings the neighborhood to life with stories that connect art, history, and everyday Parisian magic. If you’d like, you can add on a tasting of five wines — three stills, one sparkling and one dessert wine— paired with a cheese and charcuterie board and a delicious tarte tartin, all led by a professional sommelier. It’s one of our favorite small group tours — come see why Montmartre still captures the imagination.
