8.Family Treasure Hunt in Montmartre

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 6 reviews · 2 hours (approx.)

You and your children explore Montmartre through a two-hour treasure hunt, starting near Anvers and ending at Place des Abbesses. Each child receives an activity booklet, with clues leading past Sacré-Coeur, Place du Tertre, artist landmarks, animal sculptures, and a final café stop.

“This was a nice little tour, but not spectacular. We met the guide at the designated spot. We climbed up to Sacre Coeur, through he cathedral, and around the neighborhood. The guide gave my son a little book with clues and things to look for along the route. That definitely helped to keep his attention. It was pretty hard for us all to hear the guide when we were walking, because she did a lot of talking while leading us and facing away from us, or to the side. Plus, her voice didnt carry very much. It was definitely a nice walk but had a lot of hills, as expected…”
