Experience the culturally rich and iconically beautiful neighborhood of Montmartre. Ascend to the city’s most beautiful viewpoint for breathtaking views of Paris (including the Eiffel Tower!). Along the way, savor the crème de la crème of French cuisine: authentic charcuteries from decorated butchers, world-famous French cheeses, pastries and bread from award-winning bakers, and sip on enough wine to make you say “ooh la la.”
Feel the creativity of the area’s bohemian roots as you taste macarons from the “Picasso of Pastry” while learning about the real Picasso’s time in the city. See how new age concepts mix with institutions that have served Parisians since the 1800s to create the Paris we know today—all while seeing iconic sights like the Sacré-Cœur Basilica and Montmartre’s Belvedere.
