Itinerary

  1. Moulin Rouge

    10 min Admission not included

    Guests meet outside the legendary Moulin Rouge, one of the most famous cabarets in the world and a true symbol of Parisian nightlife. Immortalized in the vibrant posters of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, the Moulin Rouge became the birthplace of the music hall and the dazzling French Cancan.

    Since opening in 1889, this iconic venue has captivated audiences from around the world. Legendary performers and global stars—including Édith Piaf, Liza Minnelli, Frank Sinatra, and Elton John—have all been enchanted by its electric atmosphere.

    Here, your guide will introduce the fascinating history, colourful characters, and scandalous stories that made the Moulin Rouge one of the most celebrated entertainment venues in Paris.

  2. Stop 2

    5 min Admission not included

    See where the most famous Crème Brûlée in the world is made, featured in the award-winning French movie "Amélie" (also known as "Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain"), the character Amélie eats her iconic crème brûlée at the "Café des 2 Moulins", a real café located in the Montmartre district of Paris, where she works as a waitress throughout the film. Great photo location.

    15 min Admission not included

    Guest will visit where Pablo Picasso lived in the Bateau-Lavoir, a building in the Montmartre district of Paris, from 1904–1909. The Bateau-Lavoir was a studio complex and meeting place for many artists, including Picasso, Amedeo Modigliani, and others.

  4. Vigne du Clos Montmartre

    15 min Admission included

    At the hidden Clos Montmartre, discover one of Paris’s most charming secrets—a working vineyard tucked away on the slopes of Montmartre. Learn how this small vineyard preserves the neighborhood’s rural past, when the hill was once covered in vines and windmills.

It’s also a perfect spot to capture photos of one of the last remaining vineyards in the city.

This charming square is famous for its open-air artists who set up easels each day, painting portraits, sketches, and colorful scenes of Paris. Surrounded by cafés and historic buildings, the square captures the spirit of the bohemian Montmartre that once attracted legendary artists like Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dalí. Visitors can watch artists at work, browse unique artwork, or simply soak up the vibrant atmosphere of one of the most iconic squares in Paris.
