Tour Overview
Experience the magic of Notre-Dame before the crowds arrive. You’ll learn about the cathedral’s history, architectural secrets, and the recent fire.
You'll discover the history of Notre-Dame and the Île de la Cité, heart of Paris, and we will end in front of the church, where you will have the opportunity to enter on your own after the tour.
Since July 1st, Notre Dame has announced a new reservation system. Tour guides are now required to book tickets. Upon this announcement, tickets sold out almost immediately through the end of the year.
To work around these restrictions, our guides will provide detailed exterior visits of the Cathedral, so the guests can learn all about the Cathedral's history, architecture, and the recent fire and reconstruction. You are still welcome to go inside afterwards, as the Church is primarily a place of worship. Entrance for individuals is free. While there can be a line, it typically moves fairly swiftly.
Choose from 2 options
– 2-hour small-group tour with a maximum of 8 people
– 2-hour private tour
Both include a walk around the Île de la Cité, tracing the island’s ancient history
Whether it’s your first time in Paris or a return visit, this tour offers a meaningful way to discover Notre-Dame, one of the world’s most inspiring monuments — a timeless symbol of faith, beauty, and rebirth.
