Highlights

  • Le Mur des Je t’aime - You briefly stop in front of an art piece called “Mur des je t’aime” which literally means Wall of I Love Yous but is generally called Wall of Love in English and was created in 2000 by Frederic Baron and Claire Kito. The tiles represent 311 ways to say “I love you” in 250 languages.
  • Eglise Saint-Pierre de Montmartre - There are written records of this church dating back to the year 885 which makes this one of the oldest Christian sites in Paris.
  • Le Bateau-Lavoir - Visit the workshop where Picasso lived between 1904 and 1909, where Modigliani also lived and worked here. So did Renoir, Juan Gris, Max Jacob, le Douanier Rousseau, and many others who are not as famous today.

Perfect for solo travellers - A fabulous way to explore the area at your own pace. Perfect for solo travellers. The instructions were easy to follow and the audio was very informative, interesting and well paced. Great that you could go back and listen again to refresh your memory. Highly recommend and I look forward to doing more self-guided audio tours.

Exploring on your own - I liked hearing the stories about the people that lived in the area. Best part was the man that walked through walls and about the windmill, the paintings... history attached to it. Also, about the movie Amelie and the connection.

Definitely recommend this! - We really enjoyed this audio tour. It was nice to be able to go at your own pace and stop off when you wanted unlike guided tours. It was also great to be able to do it when you want bs a scheduled tour!

Fantastic self guided tour - Beautiful self guided tour that takes you off the beaten path of the tourist traps (just a brief walk though them). We could not believe how well done this was. So reasonably priced and a must do to learn about montmartre while walking through!

Loved it! - Highly recommend! I had a great time exploring Montmarte listening to this tour and going at my own pace! Great details and stories of so many special places that I would have never known or just missed by just walking through the streets without listening to the guide!

Good but be ready to walk! - A lot of backtracking in the tour. But the content was entertaining and good. Just hard to navigate where it was telling you to go next.

couldn't get to the program - I couldn't get the tour. Every confirmation number I was given didn't work. They used a third party and the two were not transferring the information.
