Discover the magic of Montmartre on this intimate LivTours semi-private experience, limited to just six guests. Your journey begins in Pigalle, Paris’s historic nightlife district, in front of the iconic Moulin Rouge—birthplace of the French Cancan and a legendary cabaret since 1889. As your guide brings its colorful past to life, you’ll step into the vibrant spirit that has long defined this neighborhood.
From here, climb the charming Rue Lepic, a steep and storied street that gained international attention as part of the cycling route during the 2024 Olympic Games. As you ascend, pass historic windmills and hidden corners on your way toward the artistic heart of Montmartre. Stroll along Rue des Abbesses, lined with lively cafés, bakeries, and boutiques, and pause in Place des Abbesses to enjoy a local specialty tasting—fresh baguette in the morning or a savory galette later in the day—while learning about the area’s rich history, including the former Royal Abbey of Montmartre.
Montmartre’s bohemian soul comes alive as you follow in the footsteps of great artists like Van Gogh, Renoir, Picasso, and Dalí, who once called this hilltop village home. At landmarks such as the Bateau-Lavoir, where Picasso helped pioneer Cubism, and the Moulin de la Galette, your guide will share stories of artistic innovation and revolutionary history.
Your tour culminates at the breathtaking Sacré-Cœur Basilica, perched at the summit of Paris. From this stunning vantage point, take in sweeping panoramic views of the city at sunset—an unforgettable finale. From here, you’re free to continue exploring at your leisure, step inside the basilica, or relax at a nearby terrace and soak in Montmartre’s timeless charm.

All LivTours Semi-Private Group Tours are capped at six guests per tour guide. Our commitment to maintaining this uniquely tiny group size can sometimes be a little tricky, mathematically speaking. For example, we want to ensure that traveling families and friends can tour together, so on rare occasions we may add one or two guests to avoid separating groups. On that same note, you may also find yourself on tour with less than six people! We thank you for your understanding and flexibility.
