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.

This tour was easy to schedule, and the sites visited were quite interesting. The tour guide was very knowledgeable, engaging and spoke excellent English. We will definitely look to do tours with this company in the future.

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 (Manny) was excellent. He was able to integrate current day patterns of human behavior with historical references which was very interesting. Great energy and sense of humour with in depth knowledge of the area’s history.

Emily was a great tour guide. She was very knowledgeable on French history and didn’t mind elaborating on relevant topics. She was friendly and pleasant and I learned a lot. Would recommend to a friend.

I enjoyed this tour as Adam the tour guide enriched the visit to Sainte Chapelle and the Conciergerie way beyond a visual experience by providing an insight into French history in an interesting and engaging manner. In Sainte Chapelle we learned how to read the story told in the magnificent stained glass windows and why the Chapel was built in the first place.
