About this tour

See a more local side of Paris on an eight-hour private walking tour through tucked-away passages, neighborhood streets, and leafy parkland. Your guide meets you at your hotel, then leads you away from headline sights such as the Eiffel Tower and Champs-Élysées to places Parisians enjoy in their everyday lives.

Explore the picturesque covered passages of the 2nd and 9th arrondissements, then discover a quieter side of Montmartre. Continue along the Saint-Martin or Ourcq Canal, with time to stop at a popular neighborhood café or try pétanque, a favorite local pastime in fine weather. The route ends at Parc des Buttes-Chaumont, where elevated paths reveal lovely views across the city. Metro tickets are included, making it easy to move between neighborhoods.

With a private guide and a full day to explore at an unhurried pace, this Paris private walking tour offers a fresh perspective on the capital. Choose it for a day of local character, scenic strolls, and corners many visitors miss.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
