Montmartre Paris Tour Prices in 2026: What Each Type Costs

Fares on this hill run from $23 to $237 a head, and the spread is not a quality gradient. It is a difference in what sits inside the fare: a guide, a guide and lunch, or a guide who is talking only to you. This guide takes each band apart and says what your money is actually buying.

What do Montmartre tours cost in 2026?

The fares on this hill run from $23 to $237 per person, and every one of them is priced per person rather than per party. That spread looks like a quality gradient and is not. It is almost entirely a difference in what is inside the fare: a guide, a guide and lunch, or a guide who is talking only to you.

TypePrice bandLengthWhat the fare covers
Walking tour$23–$751h30–2h30The guide
Food tour$68–$1542h–3h30The guide, the tastings, usually wine
Private walk$65–$1181h30–2h30A guide for your party alone
Private day with a museum$2375h30Guide, museum entry, private transport

Why is the cheapest tour $23?

Because it is two hours of a guide and nothing else, in a group, on streets that are free to walk. That listing starts at Montmartre Cemetery with the cemetery’s entry inside the fare — which costs the operator nothing, because the cemetery is free — and adds trivia questions and a sketching session. There is no admission to buy, no transport and no food, so the fare is labour and nothing else.

Why is the most expensive $237?

Because it is five and a half hours, includes all entrance fees to the Musée d’Orsay with reserved entry, puts private transport between the museum and the hill, and gives you a guide who is yours alone unless you pick the semi-private option. Take out the museum ticket and the car and it is a private half-day, which is what the rest of that band costs.

What does each band actually buy?

$23–$47: a shared walking tour of ninety minutes to two hours, groups of fourteen to twenty-five, no food, no admissions. This is where most of the catalogue sits and it is the best value on the hill.

$65–$75: either a longer or a smaller-group walk, or a half-day that also covers central Paris. Also the entry point for the semi-private walks capped at twelve.

$68–$105: food tours. Seven to eight tastings, sometimes wine, three hours, groups of ten to twelve.

$118–$154: the deep end of the food tours — fifteen tastings with lunch, or a full sit-down meal with wine — and the private wine tasting with a certified sommelier.

$237: one listing, the Orsay-and-Montmartre day.

What do you still pay for separately?

Everything with a door price, because no tour listed here includes any of it. There are only four, and together they are less than the cheapest tour.

Is the price per person or per group?

Per person, on every listing here, including the ones sold as private. That is unusual — on many destinations a private tour is a party rate — and it changes the arithmetic for families. A private walk at $65 a head costs a party of four $260; a shared walk at $37 a head costs them $148. The gap is real but it is not the multiple people expect.

What about gratuities?

Excluded on every listing that mentions them, and mentioned on most. Budget for it separately, at your own discretion. One listing describes gratuities as optional in as many words.

Which tours are the best value?

Three, for three different reasons. The $23 art-lovers walk is the cheapest guided anything on the hill and it includes a cemetery entry. The $37 ninety-minute walk is the lowest per-minute price and the only one described as wheelchair accessible. And the $27 two-hour-twenty walk from Place Saint-Pierre gives you the most tour per dollar: longer than almost everything, and cheaper than most.

How does this compare with doing it yourself?

A self-guided day costs you a €2.55 metro fare each way, €8 if you climb the dome, and lunch. Call it €40 with a decent meal. A guided walk adds $23 to $47 to that, and a food tour replaces the lunch entirely. The food-tour arithmetic is worked through here, and the case for no guide at all is made here.

Which admissions are worth adding?

Two, and they are cheap next to any tour fare. The Sacré-Cœur dome is €8 for the only paid climb on the hill and the only 360-degree view. The Musée de Montmartre is €16, or €6 for the Renoir gardens and the café alone, which is the best-value ticket up here for anyone who wants to sit down somewhere quiet.

How do the fares compare per hour?

Per hour is the fairer comparison, and it flattens the range considerably. The $23 two-hour walk works out at about $12 an hour. The $37 ninety-minute walk is roughly $25 an hour, which is the highest rate on the hill and still the shortest bill. The $142 three- hour food tour is about $47 an hour, but it includes a meal you would otherwise buy. And the $237 five-and-a-half-hour private day is about $43 an hour with a museum ticket and a car inside it.

TourFareLengthRoughly per hour
Art-lovers walk$232 hours$12
Highlights walk$272h20$12
Ninety-minute walk$371h30$25
Semi-private walk$652h30$26
Food and wine tour$1423 hours$47
Orsay and Montmartre$2375h30$43

Read that table with what is inside each fare, not on its own: the food tour's $47 an hour is buying lunch as well as a guide, and the private day's $43 includes a museum admission.

Are there discounts, and are they real?

Two of the listings captured for this guide were carrying a promotional price at the time, one showing a reduced fare against a higher original. A promotional price is simply the price: it is what you would pay that day, and quoting a figure nobody is charging helps nobody. What it does mean is that the exact numbers above move, sometimes weekly.

What does not move much: group caps, durations, meeting points and what is inside the fare. Those are the things worth choosing on, and they are the columns in every table here.

What does a family of four actually pay?

Every fare here is per person, so the arithmetic is simple and occasionally surprising. Four people on the $23 walk pay $92. Four on the $37 ninety-minute walk pay $148. Four on the $65 semi-private walk pay $260, and four on the $142 food tour pay $568 — which is where a food tour stops being a lunch substitute and becomes a special occasion.

Two practical notes for families. One listing needs a minimum of two guests before it runs at all, and offers a full refund or another date if the numbers do not come. And several set minimum ages between six and seventeen, which are easy to miss and are on the listing rather than in the title.

Is there a cheaper way to do any of this?

Yes, and it is worth saying plainly on a page about prices. The streets are free, the Sacré-Cœur is free, and the view from the parvis is free. A self-guided morning on this hill costs you two metro fares. The tours above are buying you a route, an explanation and, on the food walks, a meal — and none of them is buying you access, because there is no access to buy.

The one genuinely unavoidable cost, if the view is why you came, is the €8 dome ticket. Every other fare above is optional, and knowing that is worth more than any discount code.

When do prices change?

Operator fares move without notice and promotions come and go — two listings here were carrying a discount when their pages were captured on 2026-09-08. The €2.55 metro fare was revised in January 2026 and is revised most Januarys. Museum admissions change less often. Treat every figure above as indicative and confirm it on the operator’s own page before you pay.

Montmartre food and wine tours are listed with current prices and group caps on Montmartre Paris Tours, and the visitor information page keeps the four door prices.
