   We begin just across from the iconic Moulin Rouge, before slowly making our way uphill. Along the way, you’ll spot Van Gogh’s former home and the café made famous by Amélie — little moments that connect Montmartre’s past and present. Early in the tour, we’ll stop at a local award‑winning bakery to enjoy a freshly baked croissant — a simple but very Parisian moment.
