Overview

Stand before Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Gothic heart of Paris, and let an expert guide bring 850 years of history to life. From sculpted portals and iconic rose windows to the flying buttresses that redefined medieval architecture, every detail tells a story worth knowing.
Your guide covers the restoration work following the 2019 fire, sharing the craftsmanship behind the cathedral's remarkable revival. Depending on your option, the tour continues inside with soaring stone vaults, glowing stained glass, and quiet chapels, or you explore independently, enriched by the full context provided outside.
Perfect for first-time visitors to Paris, history and architecture lovers, and families wanting more than a photo stop. Choose from semi-private, standard group, or fully private formats. Entry to Notre-Dame is free.
