Good to Know
The guided walking tour lasts approximately 90 minutes. The dome climb involves 300 steps with no lift access, so it's not recommended for those with mobility concerns. Arrive at least 15 minutes before your start time.
Wear comfortable walking shoes for the cobblestone streets and bring a water bottle, especially in summer. Photography is allowed throughout the tour, though flash may be restricted in certain areas of the basilica. Children can join but must be able to manage both the walking tour and dome climb.
If you're exploring more of Paris's artistic heritage, consider an advance booking for the Louvre Museum to see masterpieces by many artists who once called Montmartre home. For another perspective of the city, the Eiffel Tower summit experience offers equally spectacular views from a different iconic landmark.
