I highly recommend it! ! ! You probably won’t find such an in-depth tour guide, which patiently and professionally explains each piece of history, leaving you with endless memories every time.

👍Ms. Xu:
Small guided tours are preferred for self-guided travel. I was lucky enough to participate in the guided tour of Montmartre at night. Montmartre at night presented its most splendid scenery under Aurora's explanation. Many century-old artists' former residences may have been missed inadvertently. Their most glorious stories, I was lucky enough to participate in part of the lives of the artists during the tour. I am very grateful to Aurora for carefully preparing rich content for us and answering many questions for us. Recommended for travelers who want to get to know the beautiful and ancient Paris in depth.

👍Mr. Lai:
I am a self-guided traveler and I recommend the "Night Tour of Montmartre" itinerary. Paris takes on a different look at night. Gypsies disappear at night, replaced by open-air bars and Renaissance-style joy. We shuttled through the Sacré-Coeur to get a glimpse of the night view of Paris, visited the secret base of Leonardo da Vinci and the literati, found a mysterious drinking fountain dressed as an angel, and happened upon the mosaic graffiti on the wall... Under the guidance of the director , I accidentally explored the mysterious corner of "Père Lachaise Cemetery" and learned about the appearance of the world heritage site "On the banks of the Seine". These little stories made this trip even more unforgettable. I never thought that Paris at night would be so unforgettable. As for these fun, I will leave it to the backpackers to visit the director.

👍Mr. Su:
Montmartre itinerary: The story from the origins of Impressionism to the Paris Commune is very exciting, and the life course of historical and artistic figures is also quite profound.
