Montmartre Little Train Tour
Skip the steep climb up Montmartre's cobbled streets and let the Montmartrain do the work for you. This 35-minute train tour starts from Place Blanche and winds through Paris's most artistic district, taking you past the Moulin Rouge, Montmartre Vineyard, and Saint-Pierre Church before reaching Sacré-Cœur Basilica. The train glides through charming squares where artists still set up their easels, just as they did in Picasso's time.
Your audio guide (available in 14 languages) shares stories about the district's bohemian past as you roll through narrow streets lined with cafés and studios. The relaxed pace gives you time to spot architectural details and snap photos without the exhaustion of climbing 130 metres uphill. For a complete Paris experience, combine this with a Seine river cruise to see the city from both its highest artistic quarter and its historic waterfront.
What is Included
- 35-minute round-trip train tour of Montmartre
