Our tour leader, Moe, was OUTSTANDING! He explained so many things about the design of the exterior of Notre Dame as well as when we went inside. My only regret is that we'd originally scheduled the tour for the morning and then it was rescheduled for 7:30 pm. As a result we couldn't experience the beauty of the stained glass windows. I would highly recommend this tour.

Since the fire, the interior of Notre Dame has been completely refurbished. Definitely to be viewed (again) when you visit Paris. Make sure to make time for the altarpieces.

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and patient as some of our group had trouble with the listening devices. I feel we definitely got our money's worth with her tour, especially since we didn't have to wait on any lines to enter Notre Dame.

Learned so much about Notre Dame from Diana. She is knowledgable, enthusiastic and communicates well! I learned a lot about Notre Dame even though I have visited previously.

I found Diana very knowledgeable about the history as well as being well prepared with visuals of cathedral history. I would recommend her to others.

Just 20 people. So manageable. Skip the line was very easy. Energetic guide helped keep everything interesting. One person’s sound set did not work. Guide should have a spare

A guided tour inside and outside is the only way to see Notre Dame. We did a brief self guided tour prior to our tour with Mo and it was so amazing to have him guide us thru the history, the symbolism and all the other fascinating stories he shared. So happy we decided to take his guided tour!!
