Experience Montmartre at its most refined on this private LivTours journey led by an expert guide. Your tour begins in Pigalle, Paris’s storied nightlife district, before the legendary Moulin Rouge—birthplace of the French Cancan and an enduring symbol of Belle Époque glamour. As your expert guide unveils its rich and colorful past, you’ll be immersed in the spirit that defines this iconic quarter.
From here, ascend the picturesque Rue Lepic, a steep and storied street that gained international acclaim during the 2024 Olympic cycling route. Along the way, discover hidden corners, historic windmills, and the authentic rhythm of Montmartre life. Continue along the elegant Rue des Abbesses, where cafés, artisan bakeries, and historical brasseries create a distinctly Parisian atmosphere. In Place des Abbesses, pause to enjoy a curated local tasting—fresh baguette in the morning or a traditional savory galette in the afternoon—while uncovering the fascinating history of the former Royal Abbey of Montmartre.
The neighborhood’s artistic legacy unfolds as you trace the footsteps of masters such as Van Gogh, Renoir, Picasso, and Dalí. From the famed Bateau-Lavoir, cradle of Cubism, to the historic Moulin de la Galette, your guide will illuminate the creative and revolutionary forces that shaped modern art.
Your experience culminates at the summit of Montmartre at the majestic Sacré-Cœur Basilica. Here, take in a breathtaking panoramic view of Paris—an unforgettable and elegant finale. You are then free to linger, explore the basilica, or relax on a nearby terrace, savoring the timeless allure of this extraordinary neighborhood.
