    Let My Private Paris help you plan a dream trip to Paris!

    I was planning a trip for my husband and me and knew I wanted to visit some specific areas I happen to be following The Earful Tower and saw a mention of My Private Paris and was intrigued. Long story short, I spoke with Valentine Bailot and she assured me that they could provide private tours to all of the sites. She also arranged for drivers (actually one superior driver, Anicet) to pick us up and drop us off from multiple locations. My Private Paris is professional, yet personal. Each time we finalized a plan, I received a detailed confirmation of the tour, the guide, meeting place, time and the cost. It was VERY well organized and I felt totally confident that all of the plans were what we wanted. I wouldn’t hesitate to contact My Private Paris again or to recommend them to family and friends.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're thrilled to hear that everything went smoothly and that you felt well taken care of throughout the planning and the tours. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’d be happy to welcome you again anytime !

    Great tour, great guide

    This was a fabulous tour. Our guide, Audrey, was very good and we enjoyed every moment of this walking tour. Time well spent to be sure.

    Response from the operator: Bonjour, merci for your very sweet words, Audrey is a delight and we are really glad you have had such a great time in Montmartre with her !

    Wonderfully unique and fun tour of Montmartre with Audrey!

    After spending 10 days in Europe, this was our last "tour." Wonderfully, our guide, Audrey, felt more like a friend we have known our entire lives. She took us on the lesser known paths around the neighborhood including stopping with us whenever we wanted to check out fun stores. This was so much more than a tour - it was a view into the life and history of the charming village of Montmartre from the view of the locals. Thank you Audrey! Reach out to us whenever you are in the states! You remain our favourite guide of our entire vacation! :)

    Response from the operator: Bonjour, thank you very much for your sweet words !!!

    Best Paris tour guide- Manu

    Super pleased with this tour of the Montmartre village area! We highly recommend working with My Private Paris to arrange any Paris tour as they are very helpful and friendly. Our tour guide Manu was top notch and we were fortunate to have him guide us on two tours during our epic visit to this beautiful city. Thank you My Private Paris, and thank you Manu!!!

    Explore Montmartre like a local - Private walking tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.

    How much does Explore Montmartre like a local - Private walking tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $79 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Paris usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Explore Montmartre like a local - Private walking tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Paris is not rushed.

    Is Explore Montmartre like a local - Private walking tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 17 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Paris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Explore Montmartre like a local - Private walking tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Explore Montmartre like a local - Private walking tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Explore Montmartre like a local - Private walking tour?

    +

    Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Paris can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Paris and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Explore Montmartre like a local - Private walking tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Paris within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Paris?

    +

    Paris rewards travelers who book ahead. The headline museums sell timed entry weeks out, the best food walks cap at eight people, and the Seine cruises that are worth doing are the ones that leave after sunset. Everything below is scored by the Outty Ranking so you can tell a genuine local favorite from a coach-tour filler in a single glance. On Outty we rank every Paris experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Louvre Museum Essential Guided Tour Semi Private 6 GUESTS MAX, Louvre Museum Premium Guided Tour 6 GUESTS MAX Entry Included, Paris City Center Free Walking Tour (Tip-Based). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Paris?

    +

    April to June and September to October, when queues thin out and terraces stay open late. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Paris?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
