Walkative was established in 2007 by a group of young enthusiasts who also happened to be licensed tour guides. Today, we operate in 20 cities in countries across all of Europe and beyond, including France, Germany, Poland, Italy, Ukraine and Israel. We have already guided more than 3 million tourists, with more than 350 000 in 2023 only! Despite this growth, we stay true to our values: be local and present the history of our cities in a professional, yet entertaining way, accessible for everybody, regardless their budget. We provide service not only in big, well established places like Berlin, Paris or Krakow, but also smaller, less known, yet no less fascinating locations, like Nice, Toruń or Lublin. We cooperate with highly trained, professional guides providing both engaging tip-based and regular fixed-price tours. And most importantly - we know our cities by heart! Join us and stay Walkative!
If there's an alternative to Paris' classy centre, it's Montmartre! Known for its artsy vibe, winding streets, red mills and providing pleasures of both the mind and the body, this iconic location serves the Parisians and the world as both an inspiration... and a warning.
Please note that Montmartre is known for its uphill climbs, it's stairs, and it iconic cobblestone roads! Therefore, it is unfortunately not wheelchair friendly. It is doable with a stroller/pram, but getting up the stairs and navigating the cobblestones will prove to be a challenge for you.
Once a sleepy village located on the slopes of the Martyrs' Mountain, in the late 19th century Montmartre was transformed into the world capital of art. Couple that with a string of bohemian vagabonds settling here, and you've got yourself a mix like none other in the world. Monet, Renoir, Van Gogh, Picasso, Modigliani, Matisse, Degas, Toulouse-Lautrec to name just a few - many of them were engulfed in literature, philosophy, painting and... sex, drugs and alcohol. Scandals abound, this place has it all and still draws the unruly among the human kind.
On top of that, literally, there stands the magnificent basilica of Sacré-Coeur. The surrounding streets winding up to it served as a backdrop of countless famous films and series.
Let Montmartre enchant you, like it did to us. On our tour you will see:
ℹ️ ⚠️ ATTENTION - booking rules
Please note that our free tours are designed for individual travelers and small private groups only. Hence, we do not accept parties of 8 or more people on regular free tours and guides have the right to deny participation to such groups. If you travel in a party of 8 or more please book a private tour in advance.
If you show up at the meeting point with the bigger group our guide will ask you for the payment (12 eur/person) before the tour or cancel your reservation on the spot. To confirm your reservation please arrive 10 minutes before starting. We can not guarantee participation when you will be late.
Please note that multiply bookings (under different names) for 7 people who belong to one group will still be treated as one organized group and the guide has the right to deny participation to such parties.
This policy is implied in the best interest of our individual visitors.
Please respect our rules.
In front of the Metro Blanche, the only exit, look for the yellow umbrella.
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
