About this activity

Welcome to the mythic world of Montmartre, an eclectic and historically legendary neighbourhood of Paris. Montmartre has always been a buzzing hive of creative activity and the dwelling place of some of the most influential artists of all time.

Montmartre has became a beacon to artists of every creed, but it has also become famed for its nightlife, its cafes, its red light district, its 'bals' and cabaret halls, a place where 'anything goes', a place of pushing the boundaries in all directions.

The Cabaret Patachou

Place du Tertre

Passing an old vineyard

The bust of Dilada

The 'Passe-Muraille'

La Moulin de la Galette

And much more...

Book a tour with an affable and affordable guide and soak up the rich artistic atmosphere and follow in the footsteps of the legends of Montmartre. You will be beguiled by the strange fascinating anecdotes from Montmartre's history and beyond.
