About this experience

Explore the vibrant Pigalle district and the artistic area of Montmartre, culminating in a visit to the Basilica Sacré-Cœur. This experience includes a guided tour starting at the Moulin Rouge, followed by a walk through the historic hill of Montmartre, retracing the steps of renowned impressionist painters and writers. Participants will tour Paris' largest church, the Basilica Sacré-Cœur, and enjoy panoramic views of the city, including the Eiffel Tower, at sunset. The itinerary features visits to charming cobblestone streets, the last remaining windmills, an artist-created vineyard, and a pink restaurant with an interesting backstory. The tour concludes at Place du Tertre, where guests can relax with a drink or meal at local French restaurants. This experience suits those interested in art, history, and scenic views, but may not be ideal for individuals with limited mobility due to the hill's steepness. Booking this tour allows for a deeper understanding of Montmartre's cultural significance.
