Private Half Day Guided Tour in Montmartre and Musée d’Orsay

3.7(3)Paris

À propos de cette activité

In this unique "2 tours in 1" we combine Montmartre with my favourite museum, Musée d’Orsay. We start in the birthplace of Impressionism. We see the place where Van Gogh has lived, where Renoir painted his masterpiece, Picasso’s studio, the Moulin Rouge of Toulouse-Lautrec. We finish at the Sacre Cœur where we enjoy a breath taking view over the city. After tasting the atmosphere of this neighbourhood we move to Orsay to see paintings made in Montmartre. We walk through “the artistic heaven” incl. "Déjeuner sur l’Herbe" by Manet, "Moulin de la Galette" by Renoir, portraits of the Moulin Rouge stars by Toulouse Lautrec, Starry Night by Van Gogh. Because of the stunning architecture of the old train station you can make some beautiful pictures of Paris. Through impressive pointers of the clock we see the Sacre Coeur in the background, where we were only 1 hour before. Special price (-25%) for children and youngsters, because I believe it’s important to stimulate them art and culture.

      1. Moulin Rouge

        The Moulin Rouge

        The Moulin Rouge is an important starting point, because we meet here Henri Toulouse-Lautrec. This impressionist made painting of the "vedettes" (stars) of the Moulin Rouge: La Goulue and Jane Avril. We will see both later in Musée d'Orsay.

      2. The (post-)impressionist Vincent van Gogh

        The (post-)impressionist Vincent van Gogh has lived between 1886 and 1888 in Montmartre where he met many other painters. He lived in Rue Lepic together with his brother Theo. We will see several of his paintings later in Musée d'Orsay.

        20 minutesEntrée libre

      3. Montmartre is famous because of the impressionist painters. It is also a beautiful neighbourhood by itself. We enjoy this beauty and funny side by passing the Wall of Love: in 311 different languages "I love you". Find your own language.

        20 minutesEntrée libre

      4. This is the studio of Pablo Picasso. Also this original Spanish painter created a turning point in modern art in Montmartre by starting the Cubism movement. Another proof that this neighbourhood is more than only a hype, it really brought a huge importance for art history and art lovers.

        20 minutesEntrée libre

      5. On the corner of Rue Lepic and Rue Girardon we find 1 of the 2 remaining mills: Moulin de la Galette. It was Pierre-Auguste Renoir who eternalised this mill by his masterpiece "Bal Musette du Moulin de la Galette" which we're going to see later in Musée d'Orsay.

        To end the Montmartre part of this tour we pass some nice green spots on the hill. Afterwards we pass the famous current painters on Place du Tertre where the atmosphere is always very much alive. We are heading for the Sacre Coeur and enjoy the fabulous view on the city of Paris.

      8. 7th Arrondissement

        In the Orsay Museum we take 3 parts. As an introduction we go briefly through the realism and pre-Impressionism with painters such as Millet, Courbet and Manet. To feel the city from the end of the 19th century I also show a scale-model of Paris, the Opéra Garnier building and paintings from that period.
