Join our free tour of Montmartre, where Picasso and Van Gogh, vineyards and windmills, picturesque restaurants and movie locations, will accompany us to the Sacré Coeur Basilica with the best views of Paris as the icing on the cake.
Montmartre, the bohemian and artistic heart of Paris.
This neighborhood has been the refuge of painters, poets and dreamers for more than a century. Perched atop a hill, Montmartre breathes art, history, rebellion and freedom in every corner.
Since the 19th century, it was home to geniuses such as Picasso, Van Gogh, Renoir and Toulouse-Lautrec, and the stage where the essence of modern art was born.
On this Free Tour of Montmartre, we will tell the story of the famous Red Mill (Moulin Rouge), walk together through its charming cobblestone streets, visit Van Gogh's house and the place where Picasso worked, discover its unique vineyard, the most iconic cabarets and the stories that inspired movies, songs and cultural revolutions.
Our tour culminates at the majestic Sacré Coeur Basilica, one of the most visited monuments in Paris, from where you will enjoy one of the most beautiful views of the entire city.
An essential walk for those looking to experience the artistic and bohemian essence of Paris, where every street tells a story and every corner holds its magic.
Discover the Montmartre that made the world dream, let's go together!
