Montmartre Food and Wine Tour

Discover the flavors of Paris from the hilltop village that inspired the world's greatest artists


The Montmartre Food and Wine Tour guides you through one of Paris's most storied neighborhoods, pairing authentic French gastronomy with the bohemian charm that once drew Van Gogh, Picasso, and Hemingway to these cobblestone streets.

Over three and a half hours, a knowledgeable local guide leads a small group of no more than ten guests through a curated selection of the hill's finest food shops, tasting rooms, and artisan producers. The intimate format means genuine conversation, honest answers to your questions, and a pace that lets you absorb both the flavors and the scenery.

From the shadow of the Sacre Coeur to the foot of the Moulin Rouge, the route winds through quiet lanes and lively squares, stopping at eight hand-picked addresses that represent the depth and diversity of French culinary culture. Savory and sweet specialties alternate throughout the walk, giving a well-rounded portrait of what makes Parisian food so enduring.

The neighborhood itself is part of the experience. Montmartre retains the feel of a village within a city, with its own vineyard, its own artistic heritage, and a community of small producers who take genuine pride in their craft. This tour connects guests directly to that community.

Tour Highlights

Visit the finest coffee address on the hill, selected for the quality of its roast and the character of its setting.

Sample an expertly chosen assortment of French cheeses, cured meats, and regional specialties at a single iconic stop.

Taste wines paired thoughtfully with charcuterie and cheese just steps from the Sacre Coeur basilica.

Discover the finest chocolate confections that Montmartre has to offer, from a chocolatier with a passion for the craft.

Walk the same streets that inspired Van Gogh, Picasso, Monet, and Cezanne, with a guide who brings the history to life.

Pass by the Place du Tertre and the Moulin Rouge, two of Montmartre's most recognizable and storied landmarks.

Benefit from a maximum group size of ten, ensuring a personal and unhurried experience at every stop.
