This is the best video of Montmartre on RU-vid. I have been there a few times, but did not see all the beautiful places you showed. I am planning my next trip to Paris this year. 😊
Please, please, s'il vous plaît keep making videos like this. Traveling to Paris in October and have been consumed with watching Paris travel videos by you and others. This is the best I have seen! So many great neighborhoods. Keep up the good work. Merci.
Wonderful video! I’ll be traveling in June and will try out this route! I’m not quite sure how to use the map.. any suggestions?! There should be way more routes like this out there to group tourist attractions together for tourists!
You can access all of my Google Mymaps from your smartphone. You can even download them to have them on your device without the need to connect to Internet.
I'm a new subscriber here & I just found your channel by sheer accident, so I immediately subscribed. Oh my gosh, this Sir, is absolutely breathtaking from start to finish! Montmartre is so lovely & wonderful! For our first week in Paris, we're staying for 9 days in this area, so we're utterly excited! You truly deserve thousands more subscribers, as your entire presentation, pleasant & interesting narrative & even the music throughout, is just brilliant & beautiful. My family & I are arriving in Paris later this year & honestly, I feel the tears welling up in my eyes when I watch anything regarding Paris & your video is the "icing on the cake"! When I left Paris & France many years ago, I cried on my last day there & I always yearned desperately to return & this year is my absolute dream come true! Thanks to my wonderful husband & family. I'll be in your beautiful & stunning country for over 6 weeks, so I don't take this for granted whatsoever. I'm blessed. It's also refreshing to hear a Frenchman taking us around his country, as you know France so very well. Your accent is wonderful! I'll watch more of your awesome videos, as they all appear very interesting & enticing. I should add, Paris is truly magical, very romantic & ethereal & these statements are never underrated! France too, is a truly spectacular country, possessing such rich history, culture & breathtaking scenery. The architecture and the excellent cuisine/food just Wow!!! Merci Beaucoup for your time & your wonderful videos, which IMPO, I think are brilliant & of very high quality. Paris we're coming soon & we're counting down the days!!!😊
I'm very glad you liked my video, receiving comments like this is a perfect reason for me to keep doing new ones... I love my city and I love my country, but I also don't want to paint it all pink. Paris can sometimes be disappointing when you expect to much, it's called the Paris syndrome (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_syndrome). So keep watching my videos (in the next two weeks I'll also speak about pickpockets and scammers) and you'll have a lot more good information to prepare your trip and be prepared 😀
THANK YOU SO MUCH for making this video and sharing the map! My husband and I are currently visiting Paris and we went to Montmartre this morning. I cannot say enough how useful your map was. It made our visit truly special 🤩 We even bumped into other tourists in a metro station who were also going to Sacré-Coeur and shared your map with them! I can see how much you care about Paris and sharing its beauty with wider people. Really appreciate your efforts and please keep the videos coming!
What a beautiful way to see this area. I imagine you must have been up early to avoid crowds? My husband and I will be here in October. Do you have any videos for that time? Also, is this area dog-friendly? Merci!!! :)
As a French person who already went to Montmartre, I still find this mindblowing and instructive ! Thank you for this beautiful walk around Montmartre !
Bonjour! j'aime bien cette video. Mon mari et moi, nous sommes australiens et nous irons en France en Septembre pour la premiere fois! Nous sommes trop impatients d'y voyager. Vos videos tellement nous aident. Merci encore une fois :)
This is amazing. And sorry to ask this again - but is this all early morning or afternoon. I would love to believe these places never get crowded but I don’t dare 😊
This was early morning, in September, off peak season... There would be many more people in July or August, but even at that time, if you start around 8 AM, it would be OK
Thank you for doing this. We are visiting Paris from next Sunday to Friday. I will definitely be using your map. So looking forward to seeing Montmartre.
Really looking forward to this video. Monmartre was a part of our tour a few years ago, and i fell in love with the rustic and bohemian style of the city. I bought art there, had my first plate of escargot there, and loved visiting Sacre Coeur. Walking the streets kind of transported you to a time where it was more laid-back. It unfolded at it's own pace...(if that makes sense.)
@@paristoptips - It really is. And as you showed so well in this video, a few steps away from the hustle and bustle of the bigger streets, and you can find some idealic side street that feels carefree and quiet. I loved this walk, and I've added it to the list of walks I have to do when next I'm in Paris.
Our stay in Montmartre was enhanced several folds by your excellent video. I wish I knew that you had included a link to your walking map - which I discovered on the last night of our stay., too late Beautiful Montmartre, we saw some of it, thanks to you
thank you for your tips and videos on Paris! Just came back from a week long trip there and your videos were very helpful in preparation. Merci Beaucoup!
Your walks are fantastic, thank you! My husband and I intend to do your Montmartre and Saint Germain des Près walks in June! Thank you for including the maps! We love your commentary and music selections. Good job keeping the music and speaking volume levels just right, as well. Merci beaucoup!
@@paristoptips Thank you! We have 5 days in Paris and I've printed off 5 of your walking tour maps. We will do a walking tour and a museum each day, then dinner and evening activities! Thank you so much for this great service!
It would vary between 2 hours and 3,5 hours depending on the way you walk, and if you climb up the Sacré Coeur or not. I did not show it, but the view is worth the climb!
Hello! May I ask how long does it usually take to explore a neighborhood like this? I am planning some days for a walking around, taking photos and videos at Le Marais, Montmartre and Saint Germain (also my favourite district too), etc. Also, thankyou very much for all these great videos!
Excellent video. We are headed to Paris for4 days in mid-March before heading to Switzerland. Ive been to Paris three times but never to Montmartre. Planning to spend the better part of a full day there on this trip. Can't wait!
Going to Paris in October 2023, all of the other videos show to start the other side, but this one map is amazing. I'm definitely following your map!Thank you ❤
I’m amazed by all the beauty shown in this video and the interesting facts of the different places. I have to screenshot some parts of it to be used in my trip to Paris next week ! Congratulations and thank you! Subscribed already 🎉🎉
Formidable! If you plan a walk in Montmartre, watch this video. It’s worth it for the logic applied to the walk with a map, but it also provides insight & images at different times of day. Merci!
Today we used your excellent map as the basis for the best day I've ever spent in Montmartre. We're Americans - we lived in Paris in the 80s and early 90s - and we now come back every year. Your map plus a friend's recommendation to dine at Le Bon La Butte made for the perfect day in Montmartre! Thank you for your excellent videos!!
These videos are just so excellent! Thank you for taking the time to record these routes for us with so much interesting information! This has been invaluable for me planning our trip. May I ask what time of the morning you were there for the streets to be so wonderfully quiet?
I want to go here and we will be in the 18th. We are going to Paris on Tuesday...But my friend is in a manual wheelchair which means I will need to push it.
@paristoptips thanks yes was thinking that. I may have to leave him at the airbnb one of the days and explore some of the things myself. My first concern tbh is getting from Charles de Gaulle Airport to the 18th with the wheelchair. Seems there are elevators at the airport so may the train would be best. We are not sure yet possibly an uber may best.
In RER stations, including at CDG, you have lifts. But from the RER station Gare du Nord in Paris to the 18th, you still would have to take a taxi or Uber
@paristoptips ok thanks. I am looking forward to it but also slightly concerned about wheel chair. You see I booked for myself then friend wanted to come. We would probably have been better to go somewhere else and I could have gone to paris myself some other time. It's nice for him to get a holiday too he is 84 and visually impaired. Was meant to be a bit of a break for me tbh. It didn't work out that way :)
My father's 86 and in a wheelchair, so I perfectly understand what you think. This website may be useful to you: parisjetaime.com/eng/practical-paris/visiting-paris-with-a-disability-i053
Going to Paris for the first time in my life on Sept 18 for two weeks. I am 70 years old and walk very slowly but I don't care! I am going. This Montmarte video was sublime. Merci!
With pleasure 🙏 I hope you have a great time in my beloved city! Even if you walk slowly, in two weeks, you'll have plenty of time to see a lot of it....
Thankful for channels like this! I followed your map and my husband is happy with the route we did compared to the last time we went to Montmarte! Bravo to Paris Top Tips! Thank you! God bless you.
Very details and simple to follow. This is the kind of most tourists want. I have a silly question, how hard it is to find a toilet around Mont Martre as I travel with someone less mobility and incontinence. Merci for the video clip
I love Montmartre (especially the area closer to where this video journey starts) and am finally going to stay there on my next trip in November. Up to this point I have only stayed in Marais, the 9th, and the 10th.
Your videos have been my best research into Paris. Heading there in 2 weeks. I’ve downloaded your maps, practically seen your videos so many times to etch it on my memory. Thank you for being so thorough.
If like me you plan to do this route to avoid as many steps up as you can you -& using Lamarck C that there are 111 steps up from the metro before any others. Id recommend Abesses - walk along & get the funicular up - the other things eg statues are within 5 minutes from Sacre Coeur- its easier to go there after.
Thank you very nice. I heard there is a very boho chic avante guarde area full of artisans in the south behind the mountains of Nice. can you do a video on artisan village where people live alternative lifestyles please
Love all of your videos! I found you yesterday and I was glad! Your videos are very informative and good. Going to be in Paris soon and I have been watching your videos. This will be my 3rd trip to Paris! I love Paris!
Strikes are not an issue at the moment in Paris. Might be in September, though... Refugees are another issue, but staying in touristy places, you would not meet many...
This amazing! I Will be in París in November and Will take the same walk, it's adorable Thank you for making such great content. Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷
We went to Montmar Place in 2004, I particularly liked Place du Tertre so many artists with so little space for their work. I was saddened by urban expressionists who showered red & green paint across the domes of the hill top temple. Your video is professional & covers a substantial area on foot. It's always better to learn your way around by a French person, who knows the lay of the land tres bien Monsieur.
I'm in Paris trying to see what more this breathtaking city has to offer before the trip ends. I am definitely checking out Montmartre! Thank you for providing a walking map to get around all the amazing places I'm seeing in the video!
I loved your video. I can never get enough of the Montmartre neighborhood. Merci beaucoup. But why most of the shops closed when you went around? What sort of people now live in Rue Gabrielle and the older streets? Also, I would've wanted to see the atelier of Renoir.
I went there early in the morning and most shops open at 9 or 10 AM. And the Montmartre museum and jardin Renoir was also closed. It's an upscale neighborhood with quite high apartment prices: it's not very popular anymore...
After trying to listen to a very 'trying' hyppie American do his tour of Montmartre, yours is a god-send and excellent. We came to Montmartre for two weeks and stayed nearly 3 months. Eventually, reluctantly left to return home but Montmartre has never left us. Its calling us once again.
What's great in Paris, is that some people will love Montmartre, some will not want anything else than Le Marais, some will always go to the Eiffel Tower neighborhood.... We are spoilt for choice in Paris!🙂
Oh wow! Have a wonderful time in beautiful Paris guys!! I'm excited for you! haha We go later this year & we too, are utterly excited & are counting down the days. I've been watching many you tubers in Paris & all have been very helpful, but this is the icing on the cake. Safe travels.
Thank you for this wonderful guide tour in Montmartre, Seeing the area thru a local is amzazing. I was there a few days ago and will revisit with your tips / suggestions. This makes my trip more fun and interesting.
Very nice You-Tube about Montmartre indeed. I’ve walked these streets a hundred times, and I never get bored. It’s an utterly romantic and creative environment. Amélie Poulain and the music of Yann Tiersen have captured this spirit so well. I can also recommend the book ‘In the footsteps of Toulouse Lautrec’ by Alain Vircondelet, and the interpretation of ‘Sous le ciel de Paris’ by Zaz!
Regrettably in my view Paris has gone down hill in recent years! I say this not as a hater of France or the French, far from it, I'm a francophile. Love the language, the food, the wine, the fashion and the countryside and for the most part, the people. However Paris, like many major cities and capitals, but Paris in particular has been affected, has become incredibly dirty, absolutely full to the brim with immigrants, exceptionally expensive and it has lost its identity. Paris in the 50s and 60s and 70s and 80s and even into the early 90s was a very different place to what it has become since the turn of this century! London is not that far behind sadly although it's not as bad as Paris for the time being at least! France in general has got serious problems especially in the big cities. Nonetheless that said, I still enjoy holidaying in the French countryside especially Provence and if you choose carefully where to go you can still find some beautiful areas.
I partly agree with you.Paris faces some issues, and the majority in power currently in town hall is largely responsible for many of these problems. Moreover, as for the rest of France, poorly controlled immigration with sometimes a clear refusal to integrate into French culture and habits makes certain places in Paris quite unremarkable, especially at night.
