Our tour today was beyond wonderful, far exceeding my expectations. Id been to St Chapelle before, but our companions had not. I still learned new things. Our guide Violette was brilliant a walking encyclopedia, yet very personal and funny. She even remembered our names. The Concierge was VERY interesting and left me stunned. The Notre Dame (outside only) which has risen from the ashes is glorious. This tour is highly recommended and worth every dollar and every hour spent.

This was a great tour. Our tour guide was so kind and also informative, she walked at a reasonable pace and was careful to look out for the group as it was quite hot that day and involved a lot of outdoor walking. The sites were amazing and at the end of the tour we got in line for the Notre Dame and went in with only a few minutes in line.

Violette was incredibly knowledgeable and fun to listen to. With her passion and eloquence she managed to capture even our teenage kids attention for much longer than I had hoped. Although we may not be able to retain all the facts, we left with a sense of the significance and uniqueness of the place, especially the Sainte-Chapelle which is simply breathtaking. The headphones allowed us to hear the guide well despite the surrounding noises. All was well organized and we were lucky to be in a small group of 8.
