Complete Île de la Cité with Notre Dame, Sainte Chapelle & La Conciergerie

Our tour of the island was fantastic despite not being able to enter Notre Dame. Our guide Violeta was extremely knowledgeable and considerate of the needs of our small group. We had a wonderful experience.

Out tour guide Oliver was friendly and very knowledgeable he gave some great information and would recommend him for this tour.

We had booked this tour well before the unfortunate fire at Notre Dame. However, as a member of Team Adam (our tour guide was Adam), this tour lost nothing despite being unable to enter the renowned cathedral. Adam was so well versed in history and architecture that you learned so much about the prior construction of Notre Dame (which had previously collapsed 3 times) and the current reconstruction. But, do not think that Notre Dame is the end all and be all of this tour. Sainte Chapelle is breathtaking and La Conciergerie (where Marie Antoinette was held before her death) was something to see. If there is any way to have Adam be your guide on this, we highly recommend asking for him. Enjoy.

I went on this tour because of Notre Dame church which is beautiful but unfortunately we couldn't climb to the tower because the office couldn't get the tickets so they said we will get a refund and we can come back the next day and buy a ticket and go on our own ( which i doubt anyone from the froup did ) . La chapelle was inetersting also la Conciergerie.

We had the most wonderful day on this tour. All three attractions are fantastic and each was made more interesting by our very enthusiastic and knowledgeable tour guide 'Adam'. We were in a small group and were amused and involved all the way through. Take the time to go to the top of Notre-Dame, I almost didn't and am so pleased I did, the view is amazing and well worth the huffing and puffing of the steps. I would highly recommend this tour even though it is an early start.

We met our guide at 7.45am, our tour being at 8am which was an early start, but was a good early start to our walk around Paris for the day, with the tour over before lunch and lots of the day left to continue exploring Paris! Notre-Dam is just beautiful and a must to visit. A guide is good to have to explain things we would have not known. We then walked to Sainte Chapelle, with more history explained to us. Well worth seeing also - just beautiful! The prison was next with another short walk - all 3 are close by so there is not much walking - our guide explained so much to us we felt we were in that era! She took us out of our world and for a short time into Marie Antoinette’s world! A definite must to visit also. We then walked back to Dotre-Dame where our guide left us in our skip the line to climb the towers. This you do at your own pace and time. We aren’t young, but managed the hundreds of steps to the very top quite well! The view is magnificent from the top, with many many photo opportunities of Paris. A well worthwhile, enjoyable tour!

Violet was AWESOME! Approachable, knowledgeable and patient! Will ask for her next time. Don't wait in line for the canned tour...take it with someone who lives and adores it.

Fantastic tour. Our guide Felix was exceptional. His knowledge and interest in the tour topics was appreciated. I'd strongly recommend this tour.

Josephine and Nancy were great. Very easy to understand and they gave us a good tour. Very enjoyable. Easy walk between the locations and so glad we skipped all the lines. That time saved allowed for more tours. Thank you!
