Wonderful way to explore Montmartre - Our amazing guide Olivia gave us so much insight into the historic and beautiful Montmarte area. Her knowledge and explanation of the area was clear and extensive. The streets are cobblestone so comfortable shoes are a must and you need to be able to walk stairs. There is so much history and charm to the area it ended up being our favorite part of Paris.

Lovely walk in the city of love - What a surprising lovely tour! An alternative, modern and really interesting visit of the former artist’s area, with all the funny anecdotes about the places, buildings and artists of these days. Olivia knows how to catch us, embellishing the whole thing with clever jokes, and a good dose of walking in fresh air. Get your sport shoes and be ready to climb!!
