Home to the risqué cancan dance, Le Moulin Rouge has been delighting visitors for over 130 years with its Vegas-like theatrics and sumptuous interior.
Rue Lepic

A winding, historic artery of Montmartre, Rue Lepic is famous for its vibrant cafes, traditional markets, and the iconic Moulin de la Galette windmill. It’s the perfect stretch to experience the bohemian soul of Paris, famously featured in the film Amélie.
Van Gogh's House

This third-floor apartment was home to Vincent van Gogh and his brother Theo from 1886 to 1888. It was here that Vincent's palette famously brightened, inspired by the light of Montmartre and the bustling Parisian art scene.
Rue Des Abbesses

Eglise de St Jean Montmartre

Montmartre

50 min

Winding cobblestone streets. Artists painting outdoors. Fresh-baked baguettes. These are just a few of the sights and smells you’ll experience on this Montmartre Tour.

As you turn towards Montmartre’s cobblestone streets, you will soon notice the village-like ambiance of this distinct neighborhood. This is especially true as you see the shops along the Rue des Martyrs, which legend has it was the very street the first bishop of Paris was crucified. Your guide will also draw your attention to Montmartre’s historic vineyard landscape, and the centuries’ old history behind some of the winemakers in the area.

You will have plenty of time to take pictures by the former homes of artists such as Van Gogh, Renoir and Picasso. You will also have the chance to stop by Montmartre’s oldest cabaret - Au Lapin Agile. Founded in 1860, Au Lapin Agile frequently hosted famous artists such as such as Edith Piaf and inspired paintings by the likes of Picasso and Utrillo.
Eglise Saint-Pierre de Montmartre

ABOUT OUR 6 PEOPLE SMALL GROUP POLICY

When you book a LivTours Small Group Tour, you are guaranteed one tour guide per group of 6 people. Please bear in mind, however, that in order to accommodate families and friends traveling together, we do on rare occasion make the exception of adding an additional one to two guests in order to not split the groups of those that are together. On that same note, you may very well find yourself on tour with less than six people!

As we accept bookings in multiples of six, math doesn’t always work in our favor to help accommodate individual travellers and their families when on the same tour, so we hope you understand and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
