Overview

Montmartre is one of Paris’ most iconic neighborhoods, but it’s also one of the most misunderstood. Most visitors see it through crowded stairways and selfie sticks.

My Honest Take

I’ve been living in Paris for seven years, and I honestly thought I already knew Montmartre. This tour completely changed that. Intrepid Urban Adventures showed me parts of the neighborhood I’d never seen before, and stories I’d never heard, despite having visited Montmartre countless times on my own. That’s what really sets this experience apart. It doesn’t feel touristy or surface-level; it feels like being let in on a local secret. I walked away with a deeper appreciation for Montmartre and a totally new perspective on a place I thought I already understood.
