Montmartre & Sacré-Cœur Basilica, Paris
Paris, France
About This Activity
Sacré-Cœur Basilica sits at 130 m — the highest point in Paris — with a free-entry interior and panoramic views from its steps. The surrounding village streets sheltered Renoir, Picasso, and Van Gogh; Place du Tertre still fills with portrait artists. Arrive before 10 am to beat tour groups. The Musée de Montmartre (€15) occupies Renoir's former studio and garden.
Seasonal note: Year-round; arrive early morning to avoid midday crowds
