Great tour with Denise! - Our tour with Denise was amazing! We lucked out and were treated to a private tour of Montmartre. Great stories and recommendations for the rest of our trip. This tour is 90% uphill walking. Not tough but if you struggle with moderate physical activity, it may be tough.

Definitely recommend this tour! - Our guide was Denise and she was lovely and knowledgeable! It was a cold and rainy day but luckily the rain held off until the end of the tour at the amazing Sacre-Coeur. Denise told us about the history of Montmartre and it is definitely a place to visit!
