Discover TipWalk’s Paris Walks
Paris is a city that rewards those who slow down.
At TipWalk, we believe that exploring a city is about more than checking landmarks off a list. Our small-group walking tours connect travelers with passionate local guides who know the stories, culture, and character behind the places they call home.
Whether you're visiting Paris for the first time or returning to discover another side of the city, there's a TipWalk for every kind of curious traveler. Here are some of our Paris tours:
1. See the Heart of Paris from the Arc de Triomphe to the Louvre
If it's your first time in Paris, the city's most iconic landmarks are a great place to start. The 2.5-Hour Walking Tour Through the Heart of Paris takes you from the Arc de Triomphe to the Louvre, passing some of the city's most recognizable sights along the way. The route includes the Champs-Élysées, Place de la Concorde, a viewpoint of the Eiffel Tower, the Tuileries Gardens, and the Tuileries Palace.
But this isn't simply a walk between famous landmarks. Along the way, you'll hear stories about Parisian fashion, literature, architecture, history, and the people who helped shape the city.
2. Discover the Artistic Side of Montmartre
Montmartre is one of those Paris neighborhoods that feels made for walking.
With its cobbled streets, artistic history, iconic landmarks, and panoramic views, the neighborhood offers a completely different side of Paris. The Exploring the Streets of Montmartre tour invites you to wander through this famous neighborhood while discovering the artists, stories, and places that have shaped its identity. Instead of simply photographing Montmartre, take the time to understand what makes it special.
3. Uncover the Stories of Père Lachaise
Some of Paris's most fascinating stories can be found somewhere you might not expect: a cemetery. The Scandals, Gossips & Histoire: Tales at Père Lachaise Cemetery tour explores one of Paris's most famous open-air museums through stories of scandal, forbidden love, political intrigue, revolutions, and the remarkable people buried there.
From Oscar Wilde and Jim Morrison to French presidents and resistance heroes, Père Lachaise is filled with stories that reveal a very different side of Paris. This is Paris beyond the postcards, a place where history becomes personal, surprising, and sometimes even scandalous.
4. Walk Through the Historic Heart of Paris
Before Paris became the city we know today, its story began around the Seine. The Notre-Dame & Île de la Cité Walking Tour takes you through one of the city's most historic areas, centered around Île de la Cité and the iconic Notre-Dame Cathedral. Walking through this part of Paris means stepping into centuries of history while seeing some of the city's most important landmarks up close.
5. Discover the Stories Behind the Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower may be one of the most photographed landmarks in the world, but how much do you actually know about it? The Eiffel Tower: Secrets, Stories & Seine Views walk takes you from Trocadéro toward the Eiffel Tower, combining the iconic monument with its history, remarkable engineering, hidden stories, and views of the Seine. Because sometimes seeing a landmark isn't enough. Knowing the story behind it can completely change the way you see it.
