Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"My wife and I went on The 10 Tastings Of Paris: Montmartre Tour on September 14 from 12:00 to 3:00 with Maxime. We had just finished a Highlights And Hidden Gems Tour, so Maxime could concentrate on just food and drinks. Communication prior to the tour was great. We stopped in a few shops to try some foods or pick up food for our lunch in a park. Highlights were tasting different types of oysters and eating figs for the first time. A good amount of time was spent in a tucked away garden, eating the different foods Maxime bought or brought and enjoying a bottle of wine. Later he texted a list of what we ate and what shops we had visited. We really had a great time eating, drinking and getting to know Maxime."
"My wife and I went on the Highlights And Hidden Gems Of Montmartre Tour on September 14 from 9:00 to 12:00 with Paul. Communication was excellent prior to the tour and we hit it off with Paul right from the start. We headed up the hill to Sacre Coeur and enjoyed views of Paris on a sunny morning. There was no line, so we entered Sacre Coeur and wandered the rather empty church. We then worked our way down the hill as Paul showed us the highlights and hidden gems of Montmartre. Paul’s knowledge of art and artists was on display throughout the whole tour. What an enjoyable 3 hours. Do yourself a favor and check out Montmartre with personable Paul."
"We had a lovely walking tour of Montmartre with Olivia on a blustery September day. She was warm and genuine, very easy to talk to and full of information about the neighborhood including history and tips on places to eat, hear live music, get good coffee, etc. She showed us some of the major sights of the neighborhood including the house where Van Gogh lived, the Bateau Lavoir where Picasso had a studio, the beautiful 12th century church Saint-Pierre de Montmartre, and of course Sacré Coeur. We also stopped for a sweet treat and later for a coffee and conversation, and by the end of the tour we were sorry to say goodbye. "

"My husband and I spent a delightful 3 hours with Anna roaming the streets of Montmartre. Anna brought the area to life with stories about the history and artists and musicians who lived in this charming area of Paris. Anna is sweet, soft spoken and has a good sense of humor - the 3 hours flew by. "
"Had a great food tour with Alexia. She took us on a tour exactly the way we wanted. All the food tastings were amazing. She took us to places we would never have found and told us many interesting and entertaining stories along the way. Highly recommend this food tour with Alexia "
"We had an exceptional pleasant day with Joao. He is a very pleasant person with so much knowledge of our tour. We truly enjoyed being with him. He made us feel at home while he took some lovely photos of us. I would highly recommend him to all who are visiting Paris. "
"If you love a leisurely stroll through a charming city while sampling delicious food and soaking up local history, don’t miss the Montmartre tasting tour. And if you want that experience to be warm, insightful, and genuinely delightful—take it with Olivia. Her passion for Paris, its flavors, and its stories shines through every stop. It was our last day in Paris, and this tour was the perfect cherry on top of a wonderful week. "
"The weather was dismal, but Lucien was a perfect host! We saw all the things we would not have found on our own and avoided most of the crowds! He presented a wealth of knowledge about the area and Paris in general. Highly recommend him. "
"Our food walking tour of Montmartre was fabulous!! We had lots of stops with tidbits of history and local life as well as food tastings of course. Olivia was engaging, kind and full of local knowledge. Can definitely recommend "
"Alexia was absolutely lovely. She was patient with our walking pace, very knowledgeable about the area, and the spots we went were some of the best I ate my whole trip. Highly recommend. "
Picasso, Dalí, and Van Gogh once walked these street, but Montmartre’s artistic soul didn’t disappear with them. Art is still very much alive here. With a local guide, you might meet a working artist, peek inside a hidden studio, or hear the story behind a colorful mural. You might even get the chance to sketch your own piece of Paris to take home. It’s not just about looking at art, it’s about feeling part of it.
Montmartre feels like a love letter to Paris itself. With a local guide, you’ll discover the most romantic corners that are beyond the usual spots. From the famous ‘I Love You Wall’ to quiet staircases overlooking the rooftops, each place has its own charm. Whether you’re planning a proposal, snapping a sweet photo, or just sharing a peaceful moment, these spots are perfect for making memories together.
The best crêpes in Montmartre aren’t found in the busy spots. Your guide knows the little corner places where the crêpes are warm, buttery, and made with care. It’s the kind of place where you slow down, enjoy every bite, and feel a little more like a local. And if you’re not ready to leave the moment behind, your guide might suggest a quiet café nearby to keep the cozy mood going.
Tucked away on a Montmartre hillside is something you wouldn’t expect in the middle of Paris... a working vineyard! It produces just a small batch of wine each year, often auctioned off for a local charity. The wine isn’t famous for its flavor, but for its story. With a local guide, you’ll hear all about its quirky history, the neighborhood traditions that keep it going, and why this little vineyard means so much to the community.
Everyone knows the Moulin Rouge, but few people realize Montmartre still has real windmills. With a local guide, you can walk past one of the originals and imagine the days when this hill was filled with vineyards and flour mills. Van Gogh once painted the windmills of Montmartre, capturing a slower, rural version of Paris that still lingers in the quiet corners of the neighborhood today.
The view from Sacré-Cœur is iconic, but it often comes with crowds and chaos. A local guide can lead you to a quieter spot where the Paris skyline stretches out in front of you, without a single elbow in sight. And while you’re there, why not pair the view with a stop at a nearby cheese shop or a family-run wine cellar? It’s the perfect way to take in the city with your eyes and your taste buds.
The Moulin Rouge is known for its flashing lights and famous can-can, but its history goes far deeper. From cabaret legends to wartime secrets and bohemian rebellion, the stories behind the red windmill are as bold as the shows themselves. With a local guide, you’ll hear what really happened here and how Montmartre’s nightlife still carries that same creative, rebellious spirit today.
It’s hard to imagine today, but Montmartre was once a village outside the city limits of Paris. Before the streets were paved and the cafés were crowded, this hill was a peaceful countryside escape. With a local guide, you can still trace that past in hidden gardens, old stone walls, and narrow lanes that feel untouched by time. Even as Paris grew around it, Montmartre held onto its charm. You can still feel in every corner today.
Montmartre is best explored with a curious mind and someone who knows its quiet corners. A local guide can take you beyond the main squares and into the heart of the neighborhood, where you’ll stumble upon winding staircases, tucked-away galleries, and hidden stories painted on the walls. It’s not about checking off a list. It’s about uncovering the kind of beauty you only find when you take your time and look a little closer.
