The Historic Heart of Paris: Private Walking Tour & River Cruise
Explore the highlights of the French capital on this fascinating 3-hour private walking tour of Paris from Montmartre, to Le Marais to Notre Dame Island, and finish with tickets for a scenic river cruise along the Seine.
Begin on the steps of the imposing Sacré-Cœur basilica with its sweeping views over the whole of Paris, and enjoy a gentle downhill stroll through the Bohemian neighbourhood of Montmartre, home to artists like Vincent van Gogh and Picasso.
Enjoy a walking tour through Le Marais, the quaint medieval Jewish Quarter, and cross the bridge onto Île de la Cité, where the history of Paris really begins. Here you'll see the magnificent Notre Dame Cathedral, still standing after the fire of 2019 - and learn about the intricacies of gothic architecture.
