Montmartre's Secrets and Tastes in a Private Walking tour
Département de Paris
About
Far from the crowded boulevards of the centre of Paris, the Montmartre neighbourhood is nicknamed "the village" by Parisians. With its exquisite squares, pretty churches and idyllic, winding streets, it’s easy to see why artists fell in love with this neighbourhood and made it their favourite hangout since the late 1800s. Your guide will take you to the Parisian abodes of Van Gogh and Picasso, tell you stories about Toulouse Lautrec’s favourite cabaret dancer and the sad love-life of a very famous French singer. Get away from the selfie-sticks into secret passages and stunning gardens.
