Overview

Discover the magic of Montmartre with Ezrah — a passionate local storyteller who brings the neighborhood to life through history, humor, legends, and unforgettable stories.

This is more than just a walking tour. It’s an experience designed to help you truly feel the spirit of Montmartre — the village of artists, cabarets, dreamers, and hidden streets that shaped the soul of Paris.

Beginning at the Moulin Rouge, we’ll climb through cobblestone lanes, vineyards, windmills, cafés, artist studios, and breathtaking viewpoints while uncovering the stories behind figures like Van Gogh, Picasso, Dalida, and the bohemian world that made Montmartre legendary.

With engaging storytelling and local insight, Ezrah shares not just the history of Montmartre — but the atmosphere, emotion, and character that still make it one of the most captivating neighborhoods in Paris today.

**Please note: The €2.99 charged at booking is a platform reservation fee and not payment for the guided tour**

What's Included

  • Private guide to accompany the group for up to 15 people

Moulin Rouge

The Moulin Rouge marks the entrance to Montmartre, where elegant Paris once collided with scandal, nightlife, and rebellion. Beneath its famous red windmill, can-can dancers, artists, writers, and bohemians gathered during the Belle Époque, turning this neighborhood into the beating heart of Parisian nightlife and creative freedom.

Le Moulin de la Galette

The Moulin de la Galette is more than just the oldest surviving windmill in Montmartre — it’s a symbol of the neighborhood itself. Long before Montmartre became part of Paris, these hilltop windmills fed and sustained an independent village community known for its resilience, strong identity, and rebellious spirit. Even today, monuments like this remind us why the people here proudly called themselves ‘Montmartois’ rather than Parisians.

After discussing the Bateau-Lavoir we will also see the historic Wallace fountain in the square and talk about its fascinating story and how it helped modernize the city. During this we will take a break from walking and spend a few minutes in the shade of the trees in the square.

Square Suzanne-Buisson

Tucked away from the crowds, Square Suzanne Buisson reveals the quieter, village-like side of Montmartre.

Buste de Dalida

The bust of Dalida stands as a tribute to one of France’s most beloved and unforgettable performers. Known for her beauty, intelligence, charisma, and deeply emotional voice, Dalida became a symbol of both glamour and vulnerability in French culture. More than 40 years after her death, people still come here to remember her — a reminder that some figures leave behind not just fame, but a lasting emotional connection that continues to endure across generations.

Basilique du Sacre-Coeur de Montmartre

Our tour reaches its grand finale at the Sacré-Cœur Basilica, standing high above Paris with one of the most breathtaking panoramic views in the city. From here, you can admire landmarks like Notre-Dame, the Panthéon, and the endless rooftops stretching across the capital. But behind the beauty of the basilica lies a far darker and more controversial story — one deeply tied to conflict, revolution, and the turbulent history of Paris itself.
