If you want to go to ND, the key is skipping the line. This tour provides a lot of information but gets you in after the tour without waiting in the cue.

David was excellent! Such great information and stories. I wish this could have been 3 hours instead of just one!

We exited the church, but were not told that we could remain behind. I could not find the guide. Everyone had a Notre Dame voice box and I did not know it was epic tours. My guide said she had no more voice boxes that worked so I had to stick close by her for the entire tour. Marina was very informative, however.

Our guide gave us basic historical information about the cathedral and how it's been restored since the fire. A very nice summary of major events. We also were able to enter quickly through the reservations line. All in all a very pleasant experience.
