Paris in 4 Hours: Montmartre, Eiffel Tower & Notre-Dame

About this activity

This isn't about racing through a checklist of monuments. It's about experiencing the Paris

you came to see — the views, neighbourhoods, stories, cafés, hidden corners and

extraordinary landmarks that make the city unlike anywhere else.

Begin high above Paris at Sacré-Cœur before exploring the cobbled streets and artistic soul of

Montmartre. Hear stories of Picasso, Van Gogh, cabarets and bohemian Paris, and discover

corners many visitors simply walk past.

We'll pause for a classic Parisian moment at a local bakery before travelling across the city

like a Parisian.

Stand beneath the grandeur of the Arc de Triomphe and stroll along the legendary Champs-Élysées before heading to one of our favorite viewpoints of the Eiffel Tower — cameras

ready. Enter the old city, wander through the atmospheric streets of the Latin Quarter, cross the Seine and discover the stories, scandals, revolutions and characters that shaped Paris.
