Private Day Trip from Paris

Montmartre and La Vallee Village Private Shopping Trip with Hotel Pickup

Explore the artistic heart of Paris and shop premium brands at deep discounts, all in a single private chauffeured day.


This Montmartre private shopping trip combines a guided visit to one of Paris's most storied hilltop neighbourhoods with an afternoon of discounted designer retail at La Vallee Village outlet. A dedicated chauffeur collects you from your hotel and returns you there at the end of the day, so no metro map or uphill walk is required.

Montmartre sits at the highest natural point in Paris and has long attracted artists, writers, and travellers drawn to its winding lanes and village atmosphere. The private vehicle takes you directly to the summit, bypassing the steep climb that most visitors face on foot or by funicular.

La Vallee Village offers reductions of 30 to 70 percent on past-season collections from more than 100 French and international designer brands. Shoppers who qualify can also claim a VAT refund on eligible purchases, adding further value to the experience.

Because the entire journey operates as a private tour, the pace is flexible. There is no fixed group timeline to follow, and the chauffeur coordinates the transfer between both destinations around your preferences.

Tour Highlights

Visit the Basilica of the Sacre-Coeur at the summit of Butte Montmartre, one of the most recognisable monuments in Paris.

Walk through the Place du Tertre and the Abbesses quarter, historically associated with Parisian artists and bohemian culture.

Take in a panoramic view of Paris from 130 metres above ground, with an option to ascend to the dome for a 360-degree perspective.

Spend several hours shopping at La Vallee Village, where more than 100 designer boutiques offer reductions on branded merchandise.

Travel in a private air-conditioned vehicle with door-to-door hotel pickup and drop-off included throughout the day.

Benefit from VAT refund eligibility on qualifying purchases at La Vallee Village outlet stores.

Pass by the Moulin Rouge cabaret on the approach to Montmartre, one of the most photographed landmarks in the city.

Itinerary

1
Hotel Pickup

Your private chauffeur collects you directly from your Paris hotel in an air-conditioned vehicle. No arrangements for public transport or taxis are necessary on your part.

2
Moulin Rouge and the Lower Slopes

The route to the hilltop passes by the Moulin Rouge, the iconic red-windmill cabaret that helped define Parisian nightlife from the late 19th century onward. This gives you a street-level look at one of the city's most photographed facades before continuing uphill.

3
Sacre-Coeur Basilica

The vehicle brings you directly to the top of Butte Montmartre, near the Sacre-Coeur Basilica. Consecrated in 1919 and built in a Roman-Byzantine style, the church features a ceiling mosaic covering approximately 480 square metres, the largest of its kind in France. Visitors may also access the crypt and, for broader views, ascend to the dome.

4
Place du Tertre and Abbesses Quarter

A short walk from the basilica leads to the Place du Tertre, a square historically occupied by portrait artists, and the Abbesses district with its characteristic steep and winding streets. The nearby Saint Pierre de Montmartre church, dating to 1147, is one of the oldest in Paris.

5
Transfer to La Vallee Village

After Montmartre, the private vehicle transports you to La Vallee Village outlet, located outside central Paris. The transfer is comfortable and direct, with no need to navigate public transport.

6
Shopping at La Vallee Village

You have several hours of free time to browse more than 100 designer boutiques offering 30 to 70 percent reductions on past-season collections from French and international brands. VAT refund arrangements can be made at eligible stores before the return transfer to your hotel.
