Excellent
We had a wonderful tour of Notre Dame island, and St. Chappelle. Our guide, Adam, was great. He truly made the history come alive. Note at this time the tour did not include the interior of Notre Dame so we went on our on to see it earlier in the day. No tickets but no line at 8:00.

Violette was amazing! She knows so much and is great at conveying information in an interesting way. The use of the microphone and ear pieces was also very nice. We could hear her even in crowded areas. All three of us agreed that this was the best part of our trip to Paris.

Our tour guide, Amedh, was one of the best we've had with an almost encyclopedic knowledge of French history.
