If you’re looking for a way to see Montmartre in a different light—literally—this Montmartre by Night tour might just catch your eye. It’s not your typical city walk; it combines storytelling, singing, and a touch of theatrical fun, led by passionate guide Veronica Antonelli. As someone who loves uncovering the authentic character of Parisian neighborhoods, I find this kind of experience refreshingly original.
What really makes this tour stand out is the musical aspect—Veronica’s singing and her costumes, especially the wings of light, create a captivating atmosphere. Plus, it’s a short but immersive journey through the charming streets of Montmartre after dark, perfect for those who love photography, street arts, or simply want a different way to connect with this iconic neighborhood.
One thing to keep in mind is that this tour is designed to be lively and visually engaging, so dressing in something bright or fun can add to the enjoyment. It’s also great for small groups, which helps keep the experience intimate and personal.

However, it’s not a comprehensive historical tour or a night full of sightseeing—if you’re expecting a detailed history lesson or a long walk, this might feel a bit limited. Still, for an unusual, cultural snapshot of Montmartre at night, it hits the mark well.
