Experience Notre Dame Cathedral and Île de la Cité.

On this story-packed tour you will unlock the secrets of Paris’ historical origins and explore the city’s most visited monument, Notre Dame Cathedral. Île de la Cité, the central island of Paris, is where the history of this great city begins.

On this two-hour leisurely walk, you will learn about the myriad of sites the island has to offer, including Sainte Chapelle, the Memorial of the Deported, the Conciergerie, Palais de Justice and Pont Neuf. Then, from peasants to emperors to hunchbacks, we will delve into the rich history of the interior and exterior of Notre Dame de Paris and find out why over 13 million people come to see her every year.
