Paris walk

Hi, we will be in Paris this weekend. We are thinking of taking a ‘Paris walk’. We are considering either Le Marais or montmartre. Is one better than the other? I understand that it all also depends on the guide you have that day. Thanks.

I've done both thru the years and enjoyed them both.

I feel like the Montmartre one was a little more interesting to me and perhaps with streets that are a little less crowded. They will likely take you by the Montmartre vineyard plus some of the locations where famous artists lived.

However, if Saturday's weather is going to be a lot better than Sunday, I'd probably go with the Marais walk.

Rick has very good walking tours in his book, and also an audio version you can listen to as you walk.

They’re both interesting, but I think I enjoyed Montmartre better.
