Inside Notre Dame Tour with Optional Seine River Cruise

This 90-minute tour offers a detailed exploration of Notre-Dame led by an expert licensed guide. The tour begins with a guided walk around the exterior, where your guide will provide historical context for the building's magnificent architecture. They'll explain the significance of its famous gargoyles and discuss the impact and progress of the post-2019 fire restoration. The second part of the tour is a full hour inside the cathedral. With audio headsets, you will be able to clearly hear your guide. This guided experience inside is designed to highlight the details you might miss on your own. You'll learn about the architecture, see the scale of the stained-glass windows up close, and hear stories about the art and historical events that have unfolded within these walls. You can also add on a scenic Seine river cruise to see Notre-Dame and many more Parisian landmarks. The boat tour is narrated in both English and French and can be taken anytime during your trip.
