What you can expect

Discover the heart of Paris on this 2.45-hour guided walking tour. See the charming Ile de la Cite and the exterior of Notre Dame Cathedral. Marvel at the prowess of her 13th century builders - Notre Dame survived the devastating fire of 2019 and reopened after extensive work. (*Please note! Groups are not allowed to visit the cathedral until Summer 2025, you can book an individual entry ticket on the cathedral app). Enjoy skip the line access and marvel at the spectacular stained glass of the Sainte Chapelle, and visit the final prison of Marie Antoinette - the Conciergerie.

You will first see the imposing gothic structure of Notre Dame Cathedral. Built in the 13th century, this magnificent edifice has recently survived a devastating fire, yet she is still standing proudly as the symbol of the city. Learn of her incredible construction, the mastery of her medieval architects and builders, and watch history unfold before us as she readies herself to stand tall for another eight centuries. We will see the exterior of the cathedral, you can admire the imposing sculpted facade and bell towers, the flying buttresses still holding the structure of the cathedral together today, and learn of her glorious past, including tales of the famous Hunchback

Then it’s a short stroll through the charming flower market to the Sainte Chapelle, home to some of best-preserved and most breathtaking stained glass in the world. Built in the 13th century by the King Saint Louis, the walls are covered by remarkable coloured glass windows. You will skip the long entry lines, and your guide will teach you how to read the stories on these centuries old masterpieces, as you admire the astonishing multi-colored light flooding the chapel.

Our last visit is to the Conciergerie, built as a medieval palace but most famous as the prison and last home of Queen Marie Antoinette during the French Revolution. See the cells where the prisoners were kept, including the cramped cell of Marie Antoinette, where she was imprisoned until she was taken to the guillotine in 1793.
