A Waste of Money
Tout guide was sweet, but had little training as a guide and imparted very little information unless we asked a question. The tour was a waste of money.
Response from the operator: Dear Joseph, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We’re very sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations. Our guide mentioned that you seemed to enjoy the experience and that you had a friendly, pleasant conversation together about local life and culture in Paris. It seems there was a mismatch between what you were hoping for and the style of the tour you received, and we sincerely apologize for that. We understand that many guests look for more historical details and structured commentary, and we will absolutely take your feedback into account to ensure every guest receives an experience that feels valuable and informative. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts — we truly appreciate it, and it helps us continue improving. Warm regards,

Amazing Tour
Mehrdad was our tour guide for Montmartre Walking Tour. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. We got the best view and insider information on the history of Paris. Not enough words to describe how great this tour was! We loved it so much we would have extended if we had more time.

Why this scores 56
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Montmartre Walking Tour with a Private Local Guide: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.
How much does Montmartre Walking Tour with a Private Local Guide 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 Montmartre Walking Tour with a Private Local Guide take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Montmartre Walking Tour with a Private Local Guide worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 18 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 Montmartre Walking Tour with a Private Local Guide?
+
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 Montmartre Walking Tour with a Private Local Guide suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Montmartre Walking Tour with a Private Local Guide?
+
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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Montmartre Walking Tour with a Private Local Guide 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.
