While the Heart of Paris beats on the Île de la Cité, the Soul of Paris is found in Montmartre.
Almost every Parisian has lived “on the hill” at some point, and Montmartre still maintains the charm of a small village with its cobblestone streets and winding alleys. Even the public buses here are smaller, adapted to the narrow roads.

As we stroll through this iconic neighborhood, I’ll share tips to help you navigate the city like a local and check off your bucket list, from indulgent food finds to hidden gems along the way.

At the summit, you’ll be rewarded with one of the best panoramic views of Paris, often overshadowed by the more famous monuments. Montmartre is also home to the beloved love locks—a symbol of romance in the city.

The charming streets, adorned with street art and unique fashion, lead us up to the Sacré-Cœur Basilica, where you’ll feel on top of the world. It’s a neighborhood brimming with character—perfect for discovering the true spirit of Paris.
