About this experience
Montmartre is not just to be seen - it needs to be felt. This stroll will allow you to experience the charm, artistic character, and unique atmosphere of the most picturesque district of Paris. We will follow in the footsteps of Monet and Renoir, see the famous windmills, enjoy the panorama at the Sacré-Cœur Basilica. And to complement the experience, we'll have a picnic in the style of French bohemia.
What to Expect
The Atmosphere of Real Paris. We will meet at the Place des Abbesses: explore the contrasts of Paris and talk a bit about the 18th arrondissement, walk along the souvenir shops and restaurants. We will see the famous carousel (great photo opportunity!) and enjoy magnificent views - because it is from the hill of Montmartre that one of the most beautiful views of Paris opens up.
Architectural Notes. At the top of the hill, we will visit the lavish neo-Byzantine Sacré-Cœur Basilica. And on the winding streets, we will encounter one of the oldest churches in Paris, the 12th-century Saint-Pierre. Here we will see the statue of Saint Denis: I will tell you how his name is connected to the birth of Montmartre.
Impressionist Traces. Don't forget that we are in the area where the geniuses of French Impressionism worked in the 19th century: Monet, Renoir, Picasso, and other masters. We will stroll through the famous artist square, where the bohemian spirit still lingers. We will see the statue "Man Passing through a Wall" and take photos with the legendary windmills.
French Picnic - the highlight of our stroll. What is bohemian Montmartre without wine, chestnuts, cheeses, and traditional sausages! For a snack, we'll choose a romantic corner of the district to finish our meeting on a refined and tasty note.
