Additional Information

Reserve your spot on this tour to avoid the challenging climb of 222 steps up Montmartre. Instead, you’ll ride a funicular to the top of the hill in the company of your local guide.

Your guide will be waiting for you at the Anvers Metro exit (look for a sign). This tour kicks off at Sacré Coeur and wraps up at Moulin Rouge.

Once you’ve reached the top of Sacré Coeur, you’ll descend the hill alongside your tour guide, visiting various iconic sites along the way. Your first stop will be Place du Tertre, celebrated for the plethora of artists displaying their street art. You’ll also visit the renowned ‘Pink House.’ You’ll learn about the legendary Dalida and her popular statue which is thought to bring love and luck. As you carry on downhill, you’ll traverse the streets once inhabited by Van Gogh, Picasso, and other celebrated artists. You’ll pass by ‘Abbesses,’ known as the deepest metro station in Paris, and pause for a photo op at the Wall of Love.

Your journey will conclude at ‘Moulin Rouge,’ the biggest cabaret around the globe, where you’ll discover its vibrant past.
