Local Insight:Paris is the most filmed city in the world. The iconic Grand Rex cinema, Europe’s largest, opened in 1932 with a star-studded premiere featuring Maurice Chevalier. Its legendary “Rex Studios” tour lets you step directly into the magical world of movie-making.

Montmartre’s windmills weren’t just decorative. They ground flour for Parisian bakeries. The last surviving one, the Moulin de la Galette, was immortalized by Renoir and set the scene for countless films about bohemian Parisian life in the 19th century.

The “Emily in Paris” apartment at Place de l’Estrapade is a real building, but the interior scenes are shot on a set. For the perfect photo, arrive early morning when the soft light hits the pastel facade and the bakery across the street is just opening.

These tours offer more than just a walk; they’re a passport to the Paris of your screen. You’ll stand where cameras rolled, hear stories only locals know, and capture that perfect, cinematic shot—transforming from a viewer into the star of your own Parisian adventure.
